Description
Ayse Gurluk and colleagues set out a 2026 trial plan comparing device-based and hands-on sensory training for long-term back pain without a clear cause. Such pain often comes with dulled skin sensation and changed brain maps, yet no one knows whether machine-guided or manual sensory practice works better alongside standard physiotherapy.
Sixty-six adults will be split three ways, with each group also receiving standard physiotherapy three times weekly for four weeks. Pain, disability, and sensory tests will be tracked by a blinded assessor. Readers get a clean protocol to judge when results arrive, plus a template for testing sensory retraining in chronic pain care.
