简要总结
This is a randomized controlled trial, with blinded assessor to evaluate the effectiveness of Pilates to treat low back pain.
Hypothesis - the Pilates group will have best results than the control group (usual medicament treatment).
详细描述
Background:
Low back pain (LBP) is a common problem among adults. Approximately 70-85% of the adult population experiences this painful complaint at some point in their lives, making LBP the second most common reason for a visit to a clinician. Despite the frequency of this diagnosis, conventional treatment does not always provide patients the desired results of reduced pain and return of normal function. For these patients, alternative modalities are available to assist in the control of pain. These options include chiropractic care, physical therapy, massage therapy, and modalities that fall under the auspices of complementary and alternative medicine, such as acupuncture. Unfortunately, Clinical trials evaluating the efficacy of a variety of interventions for chronic non-specific low back pain indicate limited effectiveness for most commonly applied interventions and approaches.
Objectives:
To evaluate the effectiveness of a mat and studio Pilates program on pain, function, quality of life and NHAI consumption for chronic non-specific low back pain patients.
