Exercise is not a panacea for persistent pain but it is effective (small to modest effects). Comparative effectiveness is a different topic. Do we expect to ever find a one size fits all superior intervention for persistent pain? https://t.co/ksAFWuP3oS

@AngryDigit @AdamMeakins @SaSSyWagner @phxopt All studies have limitations. Too large of a review doesn’t rep the individual. Too small of a view doesn’t rep the masses.
