Impact of the Receptive Music Intervention Tool (MUSIC CARE©) on Changes in the Functional Abilities of Patients With Chronic Low Back Pain

Brief Summary

Brief Summary The goal of this clinical trial is to learn if MUSIC CARE©, a music-based therapy tool, can improve the physical abilities of people with chronic low back pain (back pain that lasts more than 3 months). The main questions it aims to answer are: Does MUSIC CARE© help participants better perform their daily activities? Does MUSIC CARE© lower the fear of movement in participants? Does MUSIC CARE© help participants return to work? Why this study? Chronic low back pain is a leading cause of disability and absence from work. Physical rehabilitation is the recommended treatment. However, many participants develop a fear of movement. This fear slows down their recovery and limits the benefits of rehabilitation. MUSIC CARE© is a digital music tool. It uses specially designed music to help participants relax and feel less pain. Researchers believe that using MUSIC CARE© before rehabilitation sessions may help participants move more freely and recover better. How does the study work? Researchers will compare two groups of participants: Group 1: follows a standard rehabilitation program with MUSIC CARE© Group 2: follows a standard rehabilitation program without MUSIC CARE© This comparison will show whether MUSIC CARE© brings added benefits. Participants will: Take part in a rehabilitation program for 5 to 6 weeks Use MUSIC CARE© before each therapy session (Group 1 only). Complete questionnaires about their pain, fear of movement, and ability to perform daily activities. Be followed for 6 months after the program ends, including an assessment of their return to work. What could this study change? If results are positive, this study could confirm that MUSIC CARE© is a useful non-drug tool to support rehabilitation for people with chronic low back pain. It could help bring this approach into standard care programs, with no additional medication.
