Brief summary (from the registry)

Pain is one of the most frequent symptoms leading patients to consult a doctor, particularly in rheumatology and cancerology. When it becomes chronic, pain is the cause of a major emotional and physical invasion, with harmful repercussions on the family, social and professional levels. It is therefore necessary to be able to propose different therapies. For many years, non-medicinal techniques have been proving their benefits and their central role in the treatment of chronic pain. Physical activity has been widely demonstrated in the literature to have considerable physical benefits (reduced risk of hypertension, vascular accidents, diabetes, improved bone condition, weight control, etc.) but also psychological benefits. However, according to the WHO, nearly 31% of adults aged 15 and over were not physically active in 2008. Physical inactivity is considered the 4th leading risk factor for death in the world. It is estimated to be the main cause of 21 to 25% of breast and colon cancers. The investigators therefore propose a feasibility study, interventional, with minimal risks and constraints, evaluating the effectiveness of adapted physical activity in chronic pain related to a pathology little studied in this field of management: multiple myeloma. This study will include about 15 patients with residual pain 3 months after the end of their induction chemotherapy treatment. Adapted Physical Activity sessions will be performed for 12 weeks. The evaluation of the expected benefits on pain and its consequences (cognitive, emotional, behavioral, physical ...) will be done through simple and validated questionnaires as well as on the evolution of the consumption of analgesics. The expected duration of the study will be one year.
