Summary

This is an observational study to examine presence of CS in patients with knee osteoarthritis (OA), chronic LBP (CLBP), and chronic neck pain (CNP) seeking outpatient physical therapy (PT) services. The study will also examine if outcomes differ between patients with CS and patients without CS symptoms with standard PT interventions.

Conditions

Interventions

OTHER

Standard Physical Therapy care

All therapy will be given as it would have routinely been administered in the clinic. Standard care for all patients includes physical therapy and chiropractic treatment at each visit. There is a nurse practitioner on site. If necessary, patients can receive trigger point injections to the musculature around the back and neck, platelet rich plasma, or headache injections by the nurse practitioner. These interventions vary on a case by case basis. Involvement in the study will not impact the patients plan of care. We will collect this information as confounders and factor into statistical analysis.
