This research corresponds to an experimental study, a double-blind randomized controlled clinical trial, where a total of 50 men and women, over 18 years of age, will be evaluated, divided into two groups: the experimental group will receive a Mindfulness-based intervention, plus a program Education in Neurophysiology of Pain, lasting 8 weeks; and the control group will only receive an 8-week Pain Neurophysiology Education program.~The variables will be measured for both groups with the same validated tools and the same investigator to avoid information biases and differential incorrect classification. The evaluations will be carried out at the beginning of the intervention and immediately after the end of this period, and the results will be recorded in a data record that will later be unified in an Excel database, recording a code for each participant to maintain condition of privacy, but at the same time allow the required comparability.~For the independent variables, the sociodemographic characteristics will be addressed; On the other hand, the outcome variables will be the Health-Related Quality of Life [HRQOL] with the SF36 questionnaire, the Pittsburgh Index for sleep quality, the VAS scale for pain, and the Craniofacial Pain and Disability Inventory (CFPDI) for pain and functionality. Once the intervention is finished, the final evaluation will be carried out and from the comparative process define if there are significant differences with respect to the results initially obtained.
To analyze the effects of a program based on Mindfulness plus Pain Neurophysiology Education versus a program based on Pain Neurophysiology Education on perceived quality of life, pain, sleep quality, and functionality, in adult patients with non-cancer orofacial pain.
