Brief summary (from the registry)

The goal of this clinical trial is to learn if active music-based intervention works to treat patients with chronic low back pain. The main questions it aims to answer are: 1. Does active music-based intervention improve cognitive function? 2. Does active music -based intervention improve sensitivity to stimuli? 3. Does active music-based intervention improve pain catastrophizing behavior? 4. Does active music-based intervention improve quality of life? Participant will visit the clinic for 5 sessions of assessments and active music-based intervention over 2 weeks. On the first visit, it will take each participant 45 minutes to complete the pre-intervention assessments followed by a 45-minute active music-based intervention. The active music-based intervention will last about an hour for the remaining 4 visits. On the 5th or last visit, after the one-hour intervention, it will take another 30 minutes for each participant to complete the post-intervention assessments.
