Detailed Description
Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.
The investigators are evaluating the impact of two different acupuncture approaches for patients reporting chronic pain. Acupuncture will be provided by a Licensed Acupuncturist for patients reporting chronic pain. Participants will be randomized to one of two treatments - acupuncture as usual or acupuncture plus mindfulness.
The investigators will collect data regarding chronic pain, interoceptive awareness, emotion regulation, and acceptability. The study is open to participants with any etiology and any location of chronic pain.

Study Groups
Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.
Acupuncture + mindfulness
Participants will receive acupuncture treatment for chronic pain. After acupuncture needles have been inserted, participants will listen to a 15-minute mindfulness recording followed by music for 30 minutes. Acupuncture needles will then be removed.
Mindfulness recording
Participants will listen to a recording of mindfulness for 15 minutes and then listen to music for 30 minutes while they rest with acupuncture needles in place.
Acupuncture control
Participants will receive acupuncture treatment for chronic pain. After acupuncture needles have been inserted, participants will listen music for 45 minutes. Acupuncture needles will then be removed.
Music recording
Participants will listen to music for 45 minutes while they rest with acupuncture needles in place.
