AbstractA back pain treatment program was developed for the outpatient, primary care clinic setting. In this pilot study, measured functional status scores improved in a cohort of patients enrolled in the program. The program consists of a series of 5 monthly group appointments and follows a sequential curriculum involving multiple therapeutic modalities. These modalities include exercise, social interaction, motivation/raison d'être, holistic coaching, music, and behavioral modelling. The program provides a forum for the discussion and implementation of complementary and alternative approaches, alongside mainstream approaches, and represents a model of integrative medical practice.
