‘Free From Pain’ is a drug-free, injection injection-free, lifestyle-based musculoskeletal pain management programme for seniors. The programme empowers Seniors with relevant information and inspirational metaphors whilst providing them with validated exercises. The programme is also available as a published book (ISBN-0995676941). This pilot study aimed to assess the suitability and safety of the programme's exercises and the usefulness of the book before considering a larger study. Participants used 5-point Likert scales to evaluate the exercises. A rating of three or below on a Likert scale denoted non-agreement to a positive statement regarding the exercises. A rating of four or above denoted agreement. The Usefulness Scale for Patient Information Material (USE) was utilised to assess the book.Abstract
