Summary

This study tests whether a virtually delivered integrated tai chi, qigong, and meditation program, added to usual care, improves chronic low back pain, disability, quality of life, and healthcare costs compared with usual care alone. Adults with chronic low back pain are randomized to begin the program immediately (Tai Chi Now) or after a six-month period (Tai Chi Later). Outcomes are collected by online survey over twelve months.
