Telerehabilitation for office workers with chronic back pain
Part of Pain clinical trials.
This study compares three types of remote physical therapy (traditional, live video, and self-paced) to see which works best for office workers with long-term low back pain. It aims to help you manage pain and improve function from home.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
