Overview

Brief Summary

The purpose of this current randomized clinical trial is to determine the effects of myofascial soft tissue release and kinesio taping on disability, pain, quality of life, autonomic nervous system and oxidative stress indicators in chronic low back pain.

Detailed Description

Design: Randomized Clinical Trial. Objective: to determine the effects of myofascial soft tissue release and kinesio taping on pain, disability, quality of life, and autonomic nervous system indicators. Methods and Measures: sixty-four individuals will be randomly assigned to one of two groups. Intervention: For 10-week, the group 1 will undergo treatment comprising a myofascial soft tissue release protocol (1/week) and the group 2 will recieve a kinesio taping treatment (1/week). Main Outcome Measures: Intensity of pain, disability, quality of life, biochemical stimation intertitial fluid, body mass indicators, hormonal indicators, indicators of autonomic nevous system, and indicators of oxidative stress will be collected in both groups at baseline, 10 weeks and 15 weeks after the last intervention. Baseline demographic and clinical variables will be examined between both groups with an independent Student t-test for continuous data. Separate 2x3 model ANOVA with time (baseline, 10 weeks and 15 weeks) as the within-subjects factor, group will be to determine the effects of the treatment.

Outcomes

Primary Outcomes

Change from baseline in Roland Morris Disability Questionnaire (RMDQ)

Time Frame: At baseline, 10 weeks and 15 weeks

This is a self-reported questionnaire consisting of 24 items reflecting limitations in different activities of daily living attributed to low back pain including walking, bending over, sitting, lying down, dressing, sleeping, self-care and daily activities

Secondary Outcomes

  • Change form baseline in Visual Analogue Scale(At baseline, 10 weeks and 15 weeks)
  • Change from baseline in Lifestyle Indicators(At baseline, 10 weeks and 15 weeks)
  • Change from baseline on Neural Network Analysis(At baseline, 10 weeks and 15 weeks)
  • Change from baseline on Quality of Life(At baseline, 10 weeks and 15 weeks)
