Objectives: The purpose of this study was to determine the complementary and alternative treatment methods and traditional methods used by pain sufferers to provide pain control. Methods: A cross-sectional and descriptive design was used. The research was carried out between February-June 2018 in Burdur, Turkey. The study sample consisted of 421 individuals. Data were collected through face-to-face interviews with questionnare. Convenience sampling methods were used.
Results: It was found, 60.3% of participants had frequent pain, 39.9% used alternative medical treatment methods, 71.9% used traditional methods and 65.3% used pharmacological methods when they had pain. When participants had pain, 64.8% used herbal treatment, 27.5% cup therapy, and 24.2% reflexology method as alternative medical treatment.
Conclusion: The people participated in the study preferred traditional methods rather than pharmacological treatment when they had pain, which is evidence of that. It is an important conclusion that the people participated in the study applied to traditional methods first, and then pharmacologic treatment and finally complementary and alternative medicine. In order to reduce damages and correctly direct people, it is very important for health professionals to know methods they will apply to solve patients’ problems when they had pain. In order to demonstrate the difference of traditional methods, the study is suggested to be carried out in different populations, regions and cultures.
