This study aims to find out which lifestyle approach works best for people with chronic musculoskeletal pain (such as low back pain or hip/knee osteoarthritis) who also have poor sleep. Participants will be randomly assigned to one of three 12-month home-based programs: exercise, cognitive behavioral therapy for insomnia (CBT-I), or a combination of both. Each program includes up to 10 online sessions with a physiotherapist and guidance on managing pain, sleep, and physical activity. We will measure changes in pain, sleep quality, and overall health using questionnaires, wearable devices, sensory tests, and blood samples. The goal is to improve understanding of non-medication treatments for pain and sleep problems.
