Clinical Trial Summary

Patients with chronic low back pain may have altered endogenous mechanisms, which can be evaluated with conditioned modulation paradigms. Mobilization with movement has demonstrated improvements in endogenous analgesic mechanisms in conditions such as knee osteoarthritis or lateral epicondylalgia. However, its effects have not yet been studied in patients with chronic low back pain. The objective of this randomized clinical trial is to evaluate the efficacy of mobilization with movement compared to placebo on endogenous mechanisms in patients with chronic low back pain.


Clinical Trial Description

Low back pain is the leading cause of disability worldwide, and chronic low back pain (CLBP) has a prevalence of 2-25%, 80% of which are classified as non-specific low back pain because the causal factors have not yet been determined. Although different mechanisms can be attributed to the chronification of pain, a frequent denominator is the amplification of nociceptive transmission or decreased inhibition of nociceptive stimuli in the peripheral and/or central nervous system. To assess inhibitory pathways, conditioned pain modulation (CPM) paradigms are commonly used in humans. They are based on the idea that a noxious stimulus applied to one part of the body can inhibit pain elsewhere by activating the descending inhibitory system. When CPM is evaluated in patients with chronic low back pain, contradictory results are found, with studies reporting an alteration of pain modulation mechanisms and others not. Different studies found that manual therapy can improve CPM compared to sham in patients with chronic musculoskeletal pain, such as lateral epicondylalgia or knee osteoarthritis. However, its effects in patients with chronic low back pain have not yet been studied. Therefore, the aim of this study was to investigate the effect of mobilization with motion on CPM in patients with chronic musculoskeletal pain. ;
