First seen Jun 26, 2026 · Last updated Jun 26, 2026

Summary

This study will test whether using a mind-body mobile app combined with a guided, gentle movement program can help people with chronic pain. One hundred adults aged 19 to 75 with persistent pain for at least 6 months will use the app daily and follow audio-guided movement sessions for 6 weeks. Researchers will measure changes in pain severity, daily functioning, mood, and quality of life through online surveys.
