Summary

The goal of this mechanistic clinical trial is to learn how physical exercise affects the body and brain in people with chronic low back pain. The study will examine whether a 12-week online exercise program changes these measures compared with a waitlist group. Researchers will also study immune activity and brain function in people with chronic low back pain and compare them with healthy participants. Participants will complete questionnaires, provide blood samples, and undergo brain imaging scans.

Conditions

  • Chronic Low Back Pain (CLBP)

Interventions

BEHAVIORAL

Physical Exercise

Patients in the PE training group will perform a 12-week online program comprising three 60-minute weekly training sessions. The training program is delivered by certified kinesiologists through a secured online platform. Healthy controls will participate only in the first 2 weeks of PE training.
