"Objective
To explore the experience of older adults after a pain neuroscience education (PNE) and exercise intervention. Methods Focus group interviews were conducted with 14 older adults after receiving 8-weekly sessions of PNE and exercise and encompassed older adults’ perceptions of the intervention and its impact. Interviews were transcribed verbatim and analyzed by 3 researchers using thematic analysis in a five-step approach (compiling, disassembling, reassembling, interpreting, and concluding). Results Three themes emerged: pain reconceptualization, motivational factors, and perceived improvements. Pain reconceptualization was illustrated by participants’ ability to use language that related to PNE concepts (n = 12), increased self-efficacy (n = 5), and adjusted emotions (n = 2) and behaviors (n = 6). Motivational factors were the group-administered intervention (n = 6) and the physical therapists’ communication skills (n = 10). The intervention was perceived as having a positive impact on sleep (n = 3), well-being (n = 6), and activity/ability to perform activities (n = 8). Conclusion Older adults understand PNE concepts and reconceptualize pain. PNE and exercise were perceived as having a positive impact on day-to-day life. Practice Implications Mode of administration, communication skills, and rapport are aspects of the intervention that are valued by older adults. Also, PNE might be used as a strategy to increase older adults’ adherence to physical activity." |
