Assessment of Exercise-Based Rehabilitation Programs for Adults with Spine Pain Comparing In-Clinic and Online Treatments

What this Trial Is About

Researchers are evaluating the effects of a specialized rehabilitation program called SpineZone, which focuses on treating cervical, thoracic, and lumbar spine conditions. This study aims to compare clinical outcomes and costs between in-clinic and online rehabilitation treatments for individuals with spine pain. The research collects data to understand improvements, costs, and patient factors linked to success while maintaining patient confidentiality through a secure registry. Participants receive either supervised exercise-based rehabilitation at the SpineZone clinic or online coaching and exercise prescribed remotely. The exercises focus on strengthening core muscles important for spine health, such as the Multifidus and Erector Spinae. The in-clinic program involves about 20 to 24 visits over 12 weeks, with progressive exercise adjustments. The online program offers personalized home exercises matching each participants resources and comfort level. Additional support like nutrition education and mindfulness may also be included. During the study, participants undergo various assessments including pain levels, disability, quality of life, strength, and range of motion at multiple time points up to two years. Data from questionnaires, physical exams, medication usage, and treatment adherence are collected securely and analyzed. Safety and data confidentiality are prioritized throughout. The study measures how well the rehabilitation programs work over time and tracks costs and patient progress to help improve spine care standards.
