Abstract
The Declaration of Montréal of the International Pain Summit of the International Association for the Study of Pain (IASP) identifies that chronic pain is a serious chronic health problem and access to pain management is a fundamental human right. The objective of current work was to formulate principles of physical analgesia or physical modalities for pain reduction and to present basic methods and mechanisms. We consider pain management as an important part of rehabilitation algorithms in patients with neurologic and rheumatologic diseases, orthopedic and traumatic conditions.
