Official title: Comparison of the Efficacy of Manual Therapy Techniques and Electrotherapy Modalities in Individuals With Non-specific Low Back Pain

Status Completed

Clinical Trial Summary

Low back pain is the fifth most common reason for doctor visits, affecting about 60-80% of people in their lifetime. Despite this, there are not enough diagnostic and treatment methods in the literature to fully elucidate non-specific low back pain. In this case, the research showed that non-specific low back pain should be handled with a biopsychosocial approach, and its relationship with fascia and myofascial meridians should be investigated.

Clinical Trial Description

According holistic that approach patients with non-specific low back pain. Instead of examining the problem of low back pain in the society only in the form of muscles, joints, ligaments, etc.; should evaluate low back pain over the fascia. It is seen that most studies in the literature only examine the painful area and tissue problems in its immediate vicinity, and therefore they approach low back pain with symptomatic treatment. In recent studies, however, the main problem is not limited to the painful area only; It has been determined that the tissue response caused by the problems in different parts of the body is transmitted to more distant regions via the fascia and myofascial meridians. ;
