Summary

This study compares a supervised mobile health app with personalized coaching to standard exercise therapy for people with chronic low back pain. About 146 adults aged 18 to 65 who have had pain for at least 12 weeks will take part. The goal is to see which approach better reduces disability and pain, and which is more cost-effective.
