Struggling with back pain?
You might be eligible for a new medication free study, being offered through Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center (Boston,MA), using a mind-body approach to reduce or eliminate pain
A free study is being offered through Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center/Harvard Medical School.
Why
Traditional treatments for chronic pain such as medications, surgery, and/or physical therapy often don't work. We intend to see if a new mind-body therapy will improve pain and quality of life.
