Many experts have over the years recommended using meditation to relieve chronic pain. Yoga has also been one of the most effective exercises for people suffering from chronic pain. Meditation works by using an entirely different pathway to handle pain compared to traditional forms of treatment. Meditation alters how the brain works; this helps an individual manage pain better.
Advanced AMMC cited a 2012 study, concluding that regular mindfulness practices or meditation help to modify how the brain responds to pain; it helps to evaluate pain contextually. Using meditation, people with pain can help to detach cognitively with improved sensory processing; this allows you to tolerate pain better.
The latest study conducted in 2018 showed that regular meditation could alter the brain’s structure, essentially altering the thickness of the brain, making people in the study group far less sensitive to pain.
However, it is worth noting that pain isn’t blocked by meditation. Instead, it helps practitioners pay attention to the pain and find a way to relieve it. In other words, meditators don’t ignore the discomfort but instead attune their mind to work with it. Accepting pain helps to increase tolerance, with meditation putting the mind and body in a calm state, promoting endorphins' release.

“We have been treating people with chronic pain for a long time. In almost every instance, we’ve discovered that yoga and meditation can profoundly affect a person’s feeling of pain. We’ve had people report that there was a significant reduction in their pain after just a few weeks of meditation and yoga.” Said one of the professionals at Advanced AMMC.
She added, “Meditation helps to realign the mind, ensuring that the person feels better sooner, and that also helps them cope, if not overcome, future instances of pain.”
