This study doesn't follow the usual testing phases — it may be an observational study or a different type of research.
This study is testing whether personalized music can help people with chronic pain feel better. Researchers will invite some patients to attend in-person music sessions for 2 weeks, then access them online for 2 more weeks. The study will measure how pain, anxiety, and overall well-being change before and after each session.
Many people with chronic pain struggle with anxiety and reduced quality of life, and standard treatments don't work for everyone. This study explores whether music — tailored to each person — might be a helpful, supportive tool to ease pain and improve emotional well-being.

You will be randomly assigned to either receive personalized music sessions or continue with your regular routine. If you receive music sessions, you'll attend in-person sessions once a week for 2 weeks on campus, then access them online for 2 more weeks. Before and after each session, you'll answer brief questions about your pain, anxiety, and well-being. The entire study lasts 4 weeks, and both groups will be interviewed at the end to share their experience.
