NCT ID NCT07299929
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study tests a structured physiotherapy program that combines pain education with guided exercise to help people with chronic muscle or joint pain. About 68 adults aged 18 to 70 who have had pain for at least six months will take part. The goal is to see if this approach improves quality of life and reduces pain-related fear and distress.
