60 patients with acute back pain presenting for chiropractic and rehabilitation care will be stratified by gender and randomized to one of two conditions: a pain relief belt device incorporating multiple speeds of vibration and optional heat, cold, and pressure delivered through a sculpted metal plate; or a TENS unit with 8 channels of stimulation and adjustable intensity. Patients will be prompted by a Qualtrics text link to a secure data recording site collecting pain and medication use.
