Filter by:The purpose of this study is to assess the effects of tDCS in combination with TUS for the treatment of pain and functional limitations in subjects with NSCLBP. The investigators hypothesize that there will be a decrease in pain levels with active stimulation, when compared to sham stimulation.
To analyze the effectiveness of mat Pilates compared to no intervention in individuals with chronic nonspecific low back pain.
Chronic Mechanical Low Back Pain (CMLBP) is a common disabling health problem among the general population. Multifidus muscle inhibition accompanying CMLBP plays a major role in perpetuating the pain and functional disability. Lumbar stabilisation and treadmill exercises are established treatments for CMLBP. However, it is not known which of the two techniques is more effective. This study was conducted to compare the effects of lumbar stabilisation and treadmill walk on multifidus activation, pain and functional disability in individuals with CMLBP.
This study will compare the effects of 2 exercise programs including core stabilization exercise and general trunk strengthening exercise programs on trunk muscle activity, physical dysfunction, quality of life and lumbar motion in low back pain patient with clinical lumbar instability.
Low back pain is considered to be chronic if it has been present for longer than three months. This pathology is extremely frequent with an annual incidence between 5 in 10 % of the general population. Thus she is frequently met in general medicine, in particular to the ageing subject. It is the 2nd motive for consultation. The Chronic Low Back Pain is a mild pathology the forecast of which is in the favorable great majority of the cases but she pulled a socioeconomic cost mattering with a poly-consumption of care, in private individuals. The primary objective of this study is to determine the impact of a 3 months SPA Therapy on the Chronic Low Back Pain in older adults (from 60 to 80 years old) realizing a SPA Therapy of 3 weeks to "Neyrac-les-Bains".
In this placebo controlled, patient and assessor blinded clinical trial, the investigators will administer electroacupuncture vs sham electroacupuncture to patients suffering from chronic low back pain, and monitor their symptoms as well as collecting objective outcome measures. The investigators objective is to identify predictors of pain reduction and functional improvement with electroacupuncture vs placebo.
The purpose of this study is to analyze the effectiveness of electrical stimulation and kinesio taping in combination with exercise in People with Chronic Low Back Pain
Objectives: To investigate the efficacy of omega-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFA) on patients with chronic nonspecific low back pain (NLBP). Methods and Materials: Twenty-nine patients with chronic NLBP were randomly divided into experimental and control groups. For 8 weeks, participants in the experimental group received omega-3 PUFA at 3000 mg/day plus physical therapy, while those in the control group received placebo plus physical therapy. The visual analog pain scale, pressure algometer, Biering-Sorenson test, Roland-Morris Low Back Pain and Disability Questionnaire (RMQ), and occupational burnout inventory (OBI) were used in assessments at baseline (T0) and after 4 (T1) and 8 weeks (T2). Serum erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR) and hypersensitive C-reactive protein (hs-CRP) were checked at baseline and T2.
The goal of this study is to investigate the role of central neural pathways in mediating chronic pain. The aim of the study is to test the effect of stimulating brain regions that are part of a network underlying central pain processing using a non-invasive brain stimulation technique, transcranial Direct Current Stimulation (tDCS). Prior studies have used tDCS to target both sensory related cortical areas and those important for higher-order representations of pain. This study will target brain regions important for the behavioral response to the chronic sensation of pain. The hypothesis is that stimulation of these brain regions can modulate not only the affective component of pain, but ultimately also improve functioning and quality of life. This hypothesis will be tested by treating study participants eighteen and older with chronic low back pain (CLBP) of greater than six months using tDCS. To be part of this study, participants must meet all the inclusion and exclusion criteria.
