Clinical Trial Summary

To determine the effects of WB-EMS application on balance, pain, muscle strength, muscle endurance, flexibility, muscle shortening and quality of life in individuals with Lumbar Disc Hernia and compare it with individuals who have not received this training.


Clinical Trial Description

Lumbar disc hernia (LDH); It is one of the common spinal problems that occur in the form of low back pain and radiculopathy that spreads to the lower extremities. The prevalence of lumbar disc herniation reported in individuals with low back pain; It ranges from 0% to 47%. It has been reported that the highest prevalence of LDH is in adults between the ages of 30-50. Disc herniation at the L4-5 and L5 - S1 spinal levels is more common in adults over the age of 55. The most important complaint in LDH is pain, and patients often complain of a blunt pain in the lumbar region. Weakness in the muscles surrounding the vertebra can cause balance and walking problems. For Lumbar Disc Hernia, sedentary life, gender, high body mass index, occupation, smoking, psychosocial factors and people exposed to vibration for a long time are among the risk factors. Lack of time is reported to be the biggest obstacle to exercising. In addition, kinesiophobia, that is the fear of pain due to movement, is very common in this group. Physical activity and exercise are arguably the most comprehensive therapeutic agent for a long-term and fundamentally established society. There is a consensus on the review of the current literature that it positively affects the risk of exercise disease, but not all, risk factors, diseases, and disability between middle and advanced age. Whole Body Electromyostimulation (WB-EMS), a technology that addresses nine (main) muscle groups, may be a good option. Given the low training intensity of 1-2 sessions per week for 20 sessions, it may be of interest to people who are close to traditional exercise programs, with low volunteer intensity and a high degree of oversight and individualization of existing WB-EMS settings. ;
