Summary

This randomized controlled trial compares the efficacy of an 8-week WATERinMOTION aquatic exercise program versus land-based rehabilitation for reducing low-back pain (LBP) and improving quality of life in sedentary, overweight/obese middle-aged women (n=45). Outcomes include pain intensity (VAS), functional disability (ODI), and health-related quality of life (SF-36).

Conditions

  • Low Back Pain
  • Obesity
  • Sedentary Behavior

Interventions
