简要总结
Occupational low back pain is a prevalent cause of functional disability. This randomized clinical trial aims to compare the effects of the Pilates Method and conventional kinesiotherapy on functional disability (Oswestry Index) and health self-perception in workers with occupational low back pain.
详细描述
The study enrolled 18 workers diagnosed with occupational low back pain. Participants were randomly assigned to one of two intervention groups: the Pilates Method or conventional kinesiotherapy. Clinical and functional evaluations were performed at baseline and post-intervention to assess the therapeutic outcomes.
