New study tests two promising therapies for stubborn back pain

This study is testing two different treatments for people with long-term low back pain that hasn't improved with standard care. One treatment involves a hands-on technique to loosen the connective tissue in the lower back, and the other is an injection of a simple sugar solution guided by ultrasound. The goal is to see which approach better reduces pain, improves movement, and enhances daily function and quality of life in 75 adult participants.
