Pain is the most common reason for seeking medical care. It is also a common reason why people turn to complementary and integrative health approaches—which is why pain is a top research priority for the National Center for Complementary and Integrative Health.

  • Since 2017, we've been partnering with other Institutes and Centers at the National Institutes of Health (NIH), as well as the Department of Defense and the Department of Veterans Affairs, to support the Pain Management Collaboratory, which is conducting large-scale studies of nondrug approaches for pain management in the military and veterans' health care systems.

  • As part of the Helping to End Addiction Long-term® Initiative, or NIH HEAL Initiative®, we're leading research in real-world health care systems to evaluate the effectiveness of acupuncture, physical therapy, mindfulness-based stress reduction, and other nondrug treatments in managing various types of pain and reducing the need for opioid drugs.

  • We're also leading the NIH Pain Research Center, which brings together researchers from different parts of NIH to conduct research to better understand the mechanisms of different kinds of pain, find out how well nonopioid treatments work, and predict individual patients' responses to pain therapies.
