Brief Summary
This study investigates how adults prescribed opioids for chronic noncancer pain respond to invitations to try non-opioid options of massage therapy, yoga therapy, chiropractic and physical therapies. Options will be available via telehealth consultation visits using a computer or smartphone with internet connection. The investigators will measure effects on pain, pain-related symptoms, and opioid use over time using a single-group design.

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (2)
Patient-Reported Outcomes Measurement Information System (PROMIS) Pain Intensity Rating
Full scale name is PROMIS (Patient-Reported Outcome Measurement Information System) Pain Intensity Scale version 3a that measures the construct pain intensity or severity in three items for how much it hurts on average, at its worst and at its least in the past 7 days. Scale ranges from minimum "no pain" =1 to maximum "very severe" =5 pain with a possible sum of 3-15. A total sum of the 3 items is converted into a T-score where 50 is equivalent to the U.S. general population average and + /- 10 points is equivalent to the standard deviation. Higher values are considered to be a worse outcome (range 40-70 after T-score conversion).
6 weeks
PROMIS Pain Interference Rating
Scale name is PROMIS (Patient-Reported Outcome Measurement Information System) Pain Interference Scale that measures the construct pain interference in 8 items for how much pain interferes with a variety of activities in the past 7 days. Scale ranges from minimum "not at all" =1 to maximum "very much" =5 pain with a possible sum of 8-40. A total sum of the 8 items is converted into a T-score where 50 is equivalent to the U.S. general population average and + /- 10 points is equivalent to the standard deviation. Higher values are considered to be a worse outcome.
