Biomedical Dogmas Still Influence the Delivery of Exercise Therapy in Chronic Low Back Pain Management: Mixed-Methods Study.

Purpose: Non-specific, chronic low back pain (NSCLBP) is a leading cause of disability, prompting long-term rehabilitation. Positive patient beliefs and expectations towards lasting exercise engagement play a crucial role for a successful management of this condition. The aim was to investigate beliefs, unmet needs and expectations of NSCLBP patients for exercise-related health behaviour change in the context of rehabilitative care.
