espanolEl dolor es un fenomeno dificil de entender que comprende dimensiones sensoriales/discriminativas, afectivas/motivacionales y cognitivas/evaluativas. La arteterapia permite trabajar con aspectos corporales y cognitivo-emocionales del dolor; en este sentido resulta ser util para desarrollar y explorar recursos para el manejo del dolor, pues al involucrar el cuerpo permite entrenar la atencion dividida ampliando el campo perceptivo mas alla del dolor. Dada la complejidad del dolor cronico, las intervenciones deben ser multicomponentes e interdisciplinares. El presente articulo presenta un abordaje arteterapeutico en el dolor cronico, recorriendo los mecanismos de accion y exponiendo una experiencia arteterapeutica con mujeres con dolor cronico tras haber pasado por una intervencion basada en mindfulness. EnglishPain is a phenomenon difficult to understand, which comprises sensory/discriminatory, affective/emotional and cognitive/evaluative dimensions. Art Therapy allows to work with physical and cognitive-emotional aspects of pain; in this sense, it is useful for developing and exploring resources for pain management, because involving the body allows to train the divided attention, widening the perceptive area beyond pain. Given the complexity of chronic pain, interventions must be interdisciplinary and with multiple components. This article presents an Art Therapy approach for chronic pain, going through mechanisms of action, and showing an Art Therapy experience with women in chronic pain after undergoing a mindfulness-based intervention. |
