Brief summary (from the registry)
The purpose of this observational study is understanding the underlying mechanisms of how PNE impacts disability in chronic low back pain patients (CLBP). The investigator will explore whether the PNE effect on patient disability is mediated by changes in pain catastrophizing, pain self-efficacy and patient beliefs about pain. Also, the investigator will explore whether the effect of PNE on disability is moderated by patient expectation.The observational multisite pre-post cohort study will be conducted in PT clinics in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia (KSA).
