Description
Chronic back pain can be a debilative problem that causes people to reduce
their motion which can lead to further problems. As such addressing chronic
back pain as a way of keeping the rest of the body healthy is of considerable
concern.

A data frame with 72 rows and 3 variables:
- Electro
The medical treatment: either None, Low, or High, where None
is corresponds to no therapy.
- Lifestyle
Change in Lifestyle: either Passive, PT, or Str. These
correspond to no change, Physical Therapy, or Strength training.
- delta
The reported change in chronic pain.
Details
This data set simulates an experiment in which we consider
three levels of electrotherapy intervention (No Electrotherapy, electrotherapy using
low frequency simulation, electrotherapy using high frequency, where the low and
high are describing the electrical simulation in Hz). A secondary type of
treatment regarding lifestyle changes (None, Physical Therapy, Strength Training)
was also included. At the end of 6 months of therapy, patients
rated their observed increase or decrease in pain levels.
