Brief Summary: Up to 80 of Australians experience back pain and 10 have significant disability as a result There is a critical need for the development and evaluation of innovative treatments that have the capacity to target the multidimensional nature of chronic low back pain This study will compare the effects and mechanisms of Mindfulness Meditation Cognitive Therapy and Mindfulness-Based Cognitive Therapy for chronic low back pain Results will ultimately lead to streamlined interventions designed to efficiently maximise benefit
Detailed Description: Up to 80 of Australians experience back pain and 10 have significant disability as a result This translates into substantial economic cost with far reaching psychological emotional and social implications Unfortunately the treatment options for chronic low back pain CLBP are limited and typical medicalpharmacological approaches entail potentially serious side-effects eg opioid addiction There is a critical need for the development and evaluation of innovative interventions that have the capacity to target the multidimensional nature of CLBP

Research indicates that psychosocial interventions for CLBP are viable treatment approaches that entail few if any deleterious side effects and can have benefit beyond pain reduction Cognitive Therapy CT and Mindfulness Meditation MM have both been found to be feasible and effective for CLBP A promising recently developed treatment that combines aspects of CT and MM is Mindfulness-Based Cognitive Therapy MBCT MBCT has been successfully applied to problems such as depression and headache however this approach has not been investigated for CLBP

Thus the current study is a randomised controlled trial RCT designed to examine the effects and mechanisms ie how and for whom do these treatments work of CT MM and MBCT for CLBP Brain state data electroencephalogram EEG as well as self-report data will be examined to investigate the potential unique and shared mechanisms underlying treatment effects Furthering the fields understanding of these treatments and their mechanisms will lead to the development of streamlined interventions designed to efficiently maximise benefit for individuals with CLBP and that optimise relief from suffering
