First seen Jun 25, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This trial tests whether spinal manipulation (a hands-on therapy) can reduce pain within 7-10 days for people with acute or subacute low back pain. It will involve 416 adults who have had pain for less than 3 months. The study compares spinal manipulation to a control treatment (peripheral manipulation) to see which works better.

What this could lead to
If it works, this could provide a safer, non-drug option for short-term low back pain relief.
What could go wrong
This is an early-stage trial with no blinding, so results may be biased. The expected benefit is small and only short-term (7-10 days).
