Summary

Low back pain (LBP) is a prevalent musculoskeletal disorder. A variety of exercise interventions which were designed as randomized control trails (RCTs) have been studied and shown effectiveness in improving pain and disability. These exercises typically focus on the abdominal and back musculature strength. However, many LBP patients did not show any improvement in their symptom after they carry out those exercise programs.

Conditions

  • Low Back Pain, Recurrent
