Brief summary (from the registry)

This study aims to evaluate the benefit of a complementary and integrative health (CIH) pain management program when added to standard rehabilitative care (SC) compared to SC alone prior to an intensive functional restoration (FR) program in a population of active duty service members. In addition the study aims to identify factors that predict improvement in pain impact following treatment, and to determine the proportion of participants who experience clinically meaningful response. SC included physical and occupational therapy. CIH included chiropractic, acupuncture, yoga and foam roller instruction. Both treatment groups also received education about pain psychology. Participants were randomly assigned to a 3-week course of either SC alone or CIH combined with SC prior to a 3-week course of FR. Outcomes were collected at baseline, at end of stage 1, and post-FR. Outcomes included patient-reported and provider-determined measures.
