Summary
SpineZone is an innovative physical therapy program with its focus on treatment of cervical, thoracic, and lumbar conditions through the use of a multi-disciplinary, technology enabled platform. Standard physical therapy modalities including psychologically informed physical therapy are employed in addition to online coaching with a fundamental tenant of core strengthening. Treatments are tracked and modified in a multi-disciplinary format taking all radiographic studies into direct consideration. The goal of this study is to utilize a registry of participants undergoing either in-clinic or online rehabilitation treatment for spine pain at the SpineZone clinical in order to understand the clinical outcomes and costs of different rehabilitation modalities in this patient population.

Interventions
Exercise prescribed to participants includes spine-specific strengthening exercises targeting core musculature (i.e. Multifidus, Erector Spinae, Transversus Abdominus, Obliques, and Rectus Abdominus). The in-clinic exercise program recommends a minimum of 20 visits at 2 visits/week, with a goal of 24 total visits over a 12-week period. Exercise is progressed by 5-10% of their exercise load once they are able to do \>20 repetitions. If they are able to reach \>10 but \<20 repetitions, exercise load remains the same. If they are unable to reach 10 repetitions, exercise load is decreased 5-10% at their next visit. The online exercise program includes non-machine based home exercises targeting the same muscles of interest, and are personalized to each participant based on their home resources and comfort level. Concurrent interventions may or may not include nutrition education, mindfulness, cognitive behavioral therapy.
