Filter by:Low back pain is a major health problem across the United States, with socio-economic burden, major cause of disability, and poor quality of life. One such non-pharmacologic treatment is Self-Natural Posture Exercise (SNPE), a series of exercise programs developed in conjunction with orthodontic bracing principles. Belts are worn around the hips (pelvic correction belt) and legs (right posture belt) to assist with self-directed exercise and posture correction. A typical SNPE program has eight different movements, targeting the entire axial skeleton. The exercises can be practiced anywhere and are widely applicable to patients as exercises are low- to moderate-intensity flexibility-based muscle strength training. There are several studies from Korea examining the efficacy of SNPE; however, there are few English language studies and there are no studies from outside the country of South Korea. As such, there is little data the generalizability of SNPE, the degree of cultural acceptance in other countries, and the all-important adherence to the home exercise program. The present study proposes to be the first study outside of South Korea to examine the effects of SNPE on chronic low back patients.
This study aims to collect primary data from patients with low back pain to assess the effect of standard osteopathic management and biopsychosocially-informed osteopathic care using a Single-Case Experimental Design.
Low back pain is a leading cause of disability among US adults, and can drive opioid use and associated poor outcomes. The Veterans Health Administration (VA) considers low back pain a significant problem. Yoga is recommended as a front-line treatment for low back pain, however, Veteran participation in yoga is low. One potential barrier to adoption among Veterans may be their perceptions of yoga. In an effort to increase Veteran use of yoga, the investigators will develop and test an alternative yoga program that may better meet Veteran preferences and interests. The investigators call this yoga program, Rage Against the Pain (RAP) 'High Intensity Stretching'. The RAP program will promote yoga as less of a meditative, introspective activity done to quiet calming music and more of an expressive, active practice set to music commonly enjoyed among many Veterans (e.g., rock, metal). The goal of this pilot study is to develop and evaluate the RAP program, including Veteran perceptions of and experiences with the program and how it may impact yoga participation, among Veterans with chronic low back pain.
The purpose of this study is to test whether LY3526318 is efficacious and safe in relieving chronic low back pain (CLBP). This trial is part of the chronic pain master protocol H0P-MC-CPMP (NCT05986292) which is a protocol to accelerate the development of new treatments for chronic pain.
This trial compared traditional pain and stress education plus physical therapy to pain neuroscience education plus physical therapy in individuals with post-traumatic stress and chronic low back pain.
Chronic low back pain is a common problem worldwide. In treatment, conservative methods usually are used. Basic Body Awareness Therapy is related to mindfulness-based therapies and meditation techniques. It is a method that has been used and found effective in some diseases affecting the musculoskeletal system. Therefore, in this study, body awareness was applied in addition to conventional treatment in patients with chronic low back pain.
The aim of this study is to investigate the instant effects of direct vertabral manipulation and indirect vertebral manipulation techniques on muscles mechanical properties, pressure-pain threshold and joint range of motion in individuals with chronic low back pain. Another purpose of this study was to compare the effects of both treatment methods on the parameters studied.
Objective: This study will be conducted to investigate the relationship between the amplitude of posterior oblique sling muscles; ipsilateral gluteus maximus (GM) and contralateral latissmus Dorsi (LD), and the amount of anterior translation of humeral head (ATHH) of the contralateral glenohumeral joint (GHJ) in subjects with unilateral chronic low back pain (CLBP) during ipsilateral prone knee extension (PHE) test. Methods: The study will be conducted on thirty subjects (15 patients with CLBP and 15 healthy subjects). Ipsilateral GM and contralateral LD amplitude will be recorded by surface EMG during PHE of the limb at the painful side and correlated to ATHH of contralateral GHJ as measured by ultrasonography. Hypothesis: There won't be a significant relationship between the amplitude of posterior oblique sling muscles (GM and contralateral LD) during PHE for the ipsilateral leg and the amount of ATHH of the contralateral GHJ in patients with unilateral CLBP.
This randomized controlled double-blinded pilot trial was performed in the Medical University of Vienna, Department of Special Anesthesia and Pain Medicine between 2015 and 2018. Aim of the study was to assess the effect of regular electrotherapy applied on the spinal cord of patients with chronic non-specific neck pain and/or low-back pain. The hypothesis was that subjective feeling of pain, range of motion of the cervical and lumbar region, as well as the activity in daily living improved after weekly electrotherapy sessions for 30 min each.
This study is being done to test the safety and efficacy of the study drug LY3556050 for the treatment of chronic low back pain. This trial is part of the chronic pain master protocol H0P-MC-CPMP (NCT05986292) which is a protocol to accelerate the development of new treatments for chronic pain.
