PTJ Author Interview: Cognitive Functional Therapy for Chronic Low Back Pain

In this episode of the PTJ Podcast, Associate Editor Jason Beneciuk, PT, DPT, PhD, MPH, talks with Lena Thiveos, PT, MPhty, and Mark Hancock, PT, PhD, about their recent systematic review that investigated the effectiveness of cognitive functional therapy in the management of chronic low back pain. Thiveos and Hancock define cognitive functional therapy, discuss how their review differs from prior studies based on that definition, and consider how variability in clinician training methods and treatment delivery can influence the results of a study.

Thiveos and Hancock are co-authors of the article "Cognitive Functional Therapy for Chronic Low Back Pain: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis.” Read the article on the PTJ website.
