Variation of disability courses in Danish chiropractic patients with low back pain: a one-year cohort study with four follow-ups
Among chiropractic patients with LBP, trajectories of disability over one year can vary substantially in pattern. Baseline biopsychosocial characteristics influence trajectories and prognosis in a cumulative, dose-dependent manner. Clinicians should be aware of this variability and tailor communication about expectations accordingly.
