Pain Resilience for Low Back Pain.

Sponsor: Integrative Pain Science Institute

Summary

Chronic pain affects about 20% of adults in the U.S. and can lead to serious personal, social, and economic challenges. It is often treated with medications, including opioids, which carry risks of dependence. While pain education (PE) helps people better understand their pain and may reduce symptoms, it generally has only modest effects when used alone. The purpose of this study is to explore whether combining pain education with other treatments-such as physical therapy, cognitive behavioral techniques, and healthy lifestyle strategies-in a multi-modal resilience approach can offer greater benefits. The study aims to answer the following question: Can a combined, whole-person approach improve outcomes in people with chronic pain more effectively than pain education alone?
