Summary

This study will give a new insight to the physiotherapy fraternity in the effects of spinal manipulation in as clinical practice, as well as the patient's community in quick re-establishment of functional ability, pain decrease, and improvement of quality of life for economic reasons. In this high opinion, application of short-term intensive spinal manipulation for non specific chronic low back pain treatment is desirable.

Conditions

  • Chronic Non Specific Low Back Pain

Interventions

OTHER

Spinal Manipulation

High velocity low amplitude thrust (HVLA) to the lumbar region of the spine between L1 and L5 vertebrae. The exact level thrust will be at the discretion of the treating practitioner determined by the level with the greatest perceivable motion restriction. The HVLA thrust will be performed with the patient side lying in a neutral.They take part in 12 treatment visits, 10 to 20 minutes sessions of SM over 2 weeks. Light soft tissue techniques (i.e., active and passive muscle stretching, and ischemic compression of tender points) may be used as needed to facilitate the manual therapy.

OTHER

Exercise therapy

Self education, supervised exercise visits, and home exercise. The overall objectives are to help patient's mange their LBP and prevent future LBP recurrences. Total number of visits 12.Each visit starts with 10 minutes of self-care education to help patients establish and monitor goals aligned with the exercise program and enhance their understanding of LBP. Participants will be taught the importance of movement and activity, pain management techniques, and methods for developing spinal posture awareness during activities of daily living (e.g., lifting, pushing, pulling, sitting, getting out of bed, and using a backpack).
