Abstract

Objective: Evaluating the Effectiveness of Integrative and Complementary Practices (ICPs) in the Treatment of Chronic Pain, Considering the Sensory and Emotional Complexity of Pain, which Affects Approximately 25% of the Global Population and 45.59% in Brazil. Methods: This integrative review, conducted following PRISMA guidelines, searched various databases, including BVS, CAPES, Science Direct, and Pubmed, using English and Portuguese descriptors. Inclusion criteria encompassed full original articles, freely accessible, published in the last 5 years. Results: After screening 785 articles, only 10 met the inclusion criteria, highlighting the benefits of Integrative and Complementary Practices (ICPs) for chronic pain in adults. These studies addressed various assessment parameters, emphasizing pain intensity, medication consumption, physical disability, and quality of life, suggesting that the implementation of these interventions could be valuable in clinical practice. Final considerations: Integrative and Complementary Practices (ICPs) demonstrated a significant reduction in the intensity of chronic back pain. Therapies such as acupuncture, moxibustion, hypnosis, geotherapy, and aromatherapy were evaluated, presenting satisfactory evidence as adjuncts in treatment, potentially reducing or even eliminating the need for medication.
