This study is testing a mind-body intervention to help people with chronic upper extremity pain, also known as repetitive stress injury (RSI), in the wrist, shoulder, or elbow. The goal is to see if this intervention can improve how well you can use your arm, shoulder, and hand, and also reduce your pain and anxiety related to pain. You might be able to join if you are between 18 and 60 years old, have had pain and disability for at least 3 months, and are willing to learn mind-body techniques. The study will measure improvements using a questionnaire called the Disabilities of the Arm, Shoulder, and Hand (DASH). The current status of this study is unclear, and it plans to enroll 40 participants.
