AbstractSomatisation is when physical symptoms develop through stress or emotional problems. Each year in the BEACH program (Bettering the Evaluation and Care of Health), somatisation disorder is managed about 30 times in 100,000 encounters. Although it is rare for general practitioners to identify the problem managed as somatisation, over the 10 years of BEACH we now have 298 encounters where this occurred, and details of these encounters are shown below.
