Participant Flow

Recruited at the Pain Management Center at University of Maryland Rehabilitation \& Orthopaedic Institute from 8/22/2016-4/27/2017.

Patients who agreed to participate were provided with a pain diary and were instructed to document their average pain each day for a week using the Numeric Pain Rating Scale (NPRS) to establish their baseline level of pain. Patients were also given the Global Pain Scale (GPS) to complete and return on the day of treatment.
