First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study compares two ways to treat chronic low back pain: physical therapy done through video calls (telerehabilitation) versus in-person clinic visits. Researchers will enroll 1000 adults with ongoing back pain to see which approach better reduces disability and pain after 8 weeks. The goal is to find out if virtual care works as well as traditional therapy and how patients engage with each option.
