Summary

This study tests whether a single dose of psilocybin can improve how people with chronic low back pain sense their body, and whether that leads to less pain and better results from physical therapy. About 45 adults aged 18-65 with long-lasting low back pain will take psilocybin and then track their pain, activity, and disability for 8 weeks. The goal is to see if psilocybin can make physical therapy more effective by enhancing mind-body awareness.
