Study offers fresh hope for people living with chronicbackpain TheLancet
the research found large clinically significant improvements in the intensity of pain and pain-related disability among almost 500 people who had been seeking help for their pain for an average of four years before trialing the new treatment.
"Lower back pain is the leading cause of disability across the globe, contributing to a loss of work productivity and early retirement worldwide," Associate Professor Kent said. Participants living with chronic back pain—including many who had high levels of disability—tested the program in up to seven sessions over a 12-week period, followed by a booster session at six months. They were followed-up by questionnaires until 12 months. More than 80 percent of the participants were satisfied with the treatment.
"This differs to traditional, more passive approaches—including massage, spinal manipulation, medication and injections—because it puts the person in charge of their condition, helping them to understand the factors contributing to their pain, building control and confidence in their body to get back to valued activities.
