Brief summary (from the registry)

The goal of this clinical trial is to test the effectiveness of a new digital therapy for managing chronic low back pain in adults. The main questions it aims to answer are: * Does the digital therapy improve back function and reduce pain intensity in participants with chronic low back pain? * How does the digital therapy's impact compare to traditional exercise therapy? Participants in this study will be asked to use the digital therapy app on their smartphones. They will receive guided core stability exercises through the app and will be encouraged to perform these exercises at home. Researchers will assess participants' progress by monitoring their exercise adherence and tracking changes in their back function and pain intensity over time. To compare the effects of the digital therapy, some participants will follow a traditional exercise therapy program guided by a physical therapist. Researchers will compare the outcomes of these two groups to determine whether the digital therapy is as effective as traditional therapy in improving back function and reducing pain intensity in individuals with chronic low back pain.
