Summary

This study tested whether an online therapy program (acceptance and commitment therapy) combined with back exercises helps older adults with chronic low back pain. Fifty participants were split into two groups: one received online therapy plus exercises, the other received online education plus exercises. The goal was to see if the therapy group improved more in pain, disability, and quality of life.
