Study Summary
This study evaluates how Veterans with chronic low back pain (cLBP) respond to varying doses of chiropractic therapy and how health services utilization are impacted as a result. There are 2 phases in this study. In Phase 1, half of participants will receive a low dose (1-5 visits) of chiropractic care for 10 weeks, while the other half will receive a higher dose (8-12 visits) for 10 weeks. At the end of Phase 1, participants in each group will be randomized again to receive either chronic chiropractic pain management (CCPM) (1 scheduled chiropractic visit per month x 10 months) or no CCPM for 10 months.
Primary Outcome
Proportion of participants achieving a clinically meaningful improvement in low back-related disability, defined as ≥30% relative improvement from baseline to 10 weeks in the Roland Morris Disability Questionnaire (RMDQ; range 0-24, higher scores indicate greater disability).
