Role of physical therapy in adult chronic non-bacterial osteitis: patients' and therapists' perspectives.

In this study, two-third of adult CNO patients had -ever or recently- used PT, which involved variable therapeutic modalities. Most patients were receptive to a larger role of PT in CNO-management and most therapists preferred CNO-specific information to optimize their care. These findings provide a foundation for the development and systematic evaluation of CNO-specific PT.
