Effects of Global Postural Re-education Versus Laser-guided Supervised Exercise in Individuals With Non-specific Chronic Low Back Pain: A Randomized Controlled Clinical Trial

is a physical therapy method developed in France by Philippe-Emmanuel Souchard. This therapy method is founded on an integrated concept of the muscular system, which is composed of muscle chains. These muscle chains are susceptible to shortening as a result of constitutional, behavioral, and psychological factors, Patients allocated to this group will be having a GPR method course of 8 sessions, two sessions per week for a four-week period. Each session will consist of 3 therapeutic postures, lying, sitting, or standing, to be held for 15-20 minutes each. The postures used are considered the most effective in lengthening the posterior chain, which is usually shortened in patients with LBP.

Patients allocated to this group will be having a LGSE method course of 8 sessions, two sessions per week for a four-week period. Each session will consist of lumbar movement control exercises. The physiotherapist responsible for the intervention corrected each participant individually as required when performing the movement control exercises to ensure the correct technique. The exercises is progress from the supine position through to standing, 4-point kneeling. The program consists of 8 exercises first starting with abdominal-diaphragmatic breathing and isolated contraction of the transversus abdominis contractions of 10 seconds' duration 5 repetition, Abdominal preparation, Pelvic elevation with previous transversus abdominis contraction and neutral pelvis,
