Chronic low back pain (LBP) is the second most common cause of disability among adults in the United States. The total cost of back pain in the US (including treatment and lost productivity) ranges between $100 billion to $200 billion a year.
In the past two decades, the use of health care services for chronic low back pain (low back pain lasting more than three months) has substantially increased. In reviewing insurance claims information, researchers note a significant increase in the use of spinal injections, surgery, and narcotic prescriptions.
