A Tai chi and qigong mind-body program for low back pain: A virtually delivered randomized control trial
Among adults with LBP, VDTQM treatment resulted in small to moderate improvements in pain-related disability, pain intensity, sleep quality, and QOL. Improvements persisted 1 month after treatment concluded. These findings suggest VDTQM may be a viable treatment option for patients with LBP.<b>Trial registration:</b> clincaltrials.gov Identifier: NCT05801588.
