      The line between pain with a physical cause and physical pain that's psychological in origin is extremely blurry, with a lot of overlap. That's why, researchers says, psychological therapy works on both.https://www.vox.com/science-and-health/2018/5/17/17276452/chronic-pain-treatment-psychology-cbt-mindfulness-evidence …
