Abstract

Patients suffering from chronic pain (CP) with overactivity frequently experience sleep disturbance. We presented a 35-year-old woman suffering from CP. To improve the sleep disturbance of individuals suffering from CP with overactivity, it is important to combine cognitive behavioral therapy for insomnia and activity pacing.
