Official title
Rage Against the Pain: An Alternative Yoga Program to Address Chronic Low Back Pain Among Veterans
Brief summary
Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.
Chronic low back pain is a leading cause of disability among Veterans. Yoga is recommended as a front-line treatment option for chronic low back pain and is available across the VA healthcare system; however, despite yoga being the most widely adopted of VHA's Complementary and Integrative Health (CIH) therapies, Veteran participation in yoga still remains limited. Although it can be effective in managing pain, individuals cannot reap the benefits of yoga if they are unwilling to adopt it. One potential barrier to adoption of yoga among Veterans may be their perceptions of yoga, which for some, encompass long-held but perhaps inaccurate beliefs of what the practice entails and how their participation will be viewed by others. The goal of this study was to develop and evaluate an alternative-to-yoga program intended to improve Veteran participation and by extension, outcomes among Veterans with chronic low back pain. Based on Veteran input, we called this yoga program Rage Against the Pain (RAP) 'High Intensity Stretching'.
