American scientists say that recent research found that Psychological treatment can help reduce chronic low back pain.
To evaluate the effects of psychological intervention on pain-related outcome, scientists collected gathered data from 22 random trials. This was seen succesful according to their reports.
They found that psychological interventions - alone or as part of a multi-disciplinary approach - proved to be superior to standard treatments on pain-related outcomes.
When the researchers analysed specific outcomes, they found that the largest and most consistent effect was a reduction in pain intensity.
The review found that psychological interventions also yielded improvement in health-related quality of life, work-related disability and depression.
