The Programa d'Atenció Integral pels Pacients amb Dolor Crònic (PAINDOC) is a multimodal and multidisciplinary group-based program that integrates pain neuroscience education, mindfulness meditation, pain psychotherapy, Empowered Relief, and therapeutic exercise. It serves as a therapeutic option for individuals with chronic low back pain, providing them with comprehensive adaptive strategies for pain management.This qualitative study explores participants' retrospective acceptability of the PAINDOC Program.To ensure demographic variability and information power, a purposive sampling approach was applied. Twelve participants were interviewed through three focus groups, supplemented with four individual semi-structured interviews. Data was analyzed using reflexive thematic analysis and evaluated based on the Therapeutic Framework of Acceptability.Participants provide positive feedback regarding active pain coping strategies and improved self-management. While certain aspects of the Program were more emphasized, participants integrated tools from all components. Strategies included pain reconceptualization, positive self-talk, or problem-solving. The Program's ethicality was closely linked to individual values and may also be influenced by time constraints of certain program elements, the immediate effects of specific approaches, participant perceptions, and individual preferences.The findings provide valuable insights into the acceptability of the PAINDOC Program, guiding future improvements and the development of similar interventions.
