Digital health program and TENS for chronic low back pain
Part of Bones, joints & muscles, Pain clinical trials.
This trial tests a digital health program combined with a TENS device (a small device that sends gentle electrical pulses to help with pain) for people with ongoing low back pain. It compares this approach to standard care, and you would be randomly assigned to one of the two groups.
