Summary
This study tested a web app called Rose that provides hypnosis audio recordings for people with chronic pain. 100 adults with chronic low back pain or other chronic pain used the app for 8 weeks.

The goal was to see if the app is user-friendly and helpful, with plans to turn it into a mobile app.

What this could lead to

What could go wrong
This is a small, completed feasibility study. The app is not yet proven to reduce pain in a large population, and the investigators have a financial interest in the company developing it.
