The Effect of Spinal Stabilization Exercise Involves Abdominal Bracing on Lumbar Lordosis Angle, Extension Strength, Function, and Pain in the Non-Specific Chronic Low Back Pain: A Randomized Controlled Trial
- Conditions
- Diseases of the musculoskeletal system and connective tissue
- Registration Number
- KCT0007777
- Lead Sponsor
- Korea National Sport University
- Brief Summary
The Lumbar lordosis angle increased over time in both groups, but there was no significant difference between the groups. Spine extensor strength improved over time in both groups, and an interactive effect was observed at a spinal flexion angle of 72°. Pain and function also improved over time in both groups, but the effect was stronger in the experimental group.
