[Purpose] This study aimed to investigate the effects of prone bridge exercise on trunk
muscle thickness. [Subjects and Methods] Thirty-seven chronic low back pain patients
participated in this study. Each participant was randomly assigned to one of three
exercise groups, namely, a prone bridge exercise group, supine bridge exercise on a Swiss
ball group, and supine bridge exercise group. The thicknesses of the transverse abdominis
(TrA), internal oblique (IO), and external oblique (EO) were measured using ultrasound.
[Results] After eight weeks of training, the three groups showed significant increases in
the thicknesses of the TrA, IO, and EO. Among the groups, TrA and IO showed significantly
different muscle thicknesses. [Conclusion] The prone bridge exercise significantly
affected the thicknesses of the TrA, IO, and EO unlike the supine bridge exercises. Based
on the results of this study, the prone bridge exercise is a more effective method to
improve trunk stability than conventional supine bridge exercises.Key words: Bridge exercise, Muscle thickness, Chronic low back pain 相似文献

[Purpose] The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of bridge exercises on
the Oswestry disability index (ODI) scores and proprioception among patients with chronic
low back pain (CLBP). [Subjects and Methods] A total of 38 patients participated in this
study. After eight weeks of bridge exercise, the joint position angle of the body trunk
was measured and the ODI was used in survey form to investigate the intensity of the
patients’ low back pain. [Results] After eight weeks of exercise, the ODI showed
significant differences in all three groups. Subjects’ joint position sense of the trunk
in both lumbar flexion and extension was also significantly different after completing the
exercise program; this was true for all three groups. [Conclusion] Performing the prone
bridge exercise for eight weeks improved proprioceptive function and reduced pain and
impediment of activity, showing it a more effective exercise than other bridge
exercises.Key words: Bridge exercise, Proprioception, Chronic low back pain 相似文献

[Purpose] The present study examined the influence of treadmill exercise added to a low
back pain rehabilitation program on low back extensor strength, pain, and dysfunction in
chronic low back pain patients. [Subjects and Methods] Twenty men aged 22–36 years with
chronic low back pain were randomly divided into experimental and control groups of 10
patients each. Both groups underwent a low back pain rehabilitation program lasting 30 min
each, thrice/week for 8 weeks. The experimental group was prescribed an additional 30 min
of treadmill exercise without a slope at a speed of 3.0–3.5 km/h, at which patients could
walk comfortably. Low back extensor strength was tested using the Medx lumbar extension
machine, pain level was tested, using the visual analog scale, and dysfunction was tested,
using the Oswestry Low Back Pain Disability Questionnaire. [Results] Changes in low back
extensor strength by angle showed significant interaction effects between measurement time
and group at 12°, 24°, and 36°. The results of the visual analog scale and Oswestry
Questionnaire showed a decreasing trend after the experiment in both groups. However,
there was no interaction effect of the additional treadmill exercise in the experimental
group. [Conclusion] The combination of a low back pain rehabilitation program and
treadmill exercise has a synergistic effect, to some extent, on the improvement of low
back extensor strength and should be considered for treatment and rehabilitation of low
back pain patients.Key words: Low back pain, Rehabilitation, Treadmill exercise 相似文献

The effect of Swiss ball exercise and resistance exercise on balancing
ability of scoliosis patients
[Purpose] The purpose of the study was to closely examine the efficiency of Swiss ball
exercise and resistance exercise in improving the on the static balancing ability by
applying them to patients with scoliosis and to compare the effects of the interventions.
[Subjects] Forty scoliosis patients were divided into a Swiss ball exercise group (SEG, N
= 20) and a Resistance exercise group (REG, N = 20) randomly. [Methods] SEG conducted
chest stretching, trunk exercise using the Swiss ball. REG conducted chest stretching,
trunk exercise with therapist’s resistance. Both groups received training 30 min per day,
five times per week, for eight weeks. [Results] Both SEG and REG showed significant
differences between pre- and post-mediation in terms of weight distribution, sway area,
sway length, sway speed, and limit of stability. Sway speed and limit of stability had
increased more significantly in REG than in SEG. [Conclusion] According to the result of
this study, both Swiss ball exercise and chest Resistance exercise were effective for
improving on the static balancing ability. But we suggest resistance exercise is more
efficient to increase of sway speed, limit of stability.Key words: Scoliosis, Swiss ball exercise, Resistance exercise 相似文献

Practice guidelines recommend various types of exercise and manipulative therapy for chronic back pain but there have been few head-to-head comparisons of these interventions. We conducted a randomized controlled trial to compare effects of general exercise, motor control exercise and manipulative therapy on function and perceived effect of intervention in patients with chronic back pain. Two hundred and forty adults with non-specific low back pain 3months were allocated to groups that received 8weeks of general exercise, motor control exercise or spinal manipulative therapy. General exercise included strengthening, stretching and aerobic exercises. Motor control exercise involved retraining specific trunk muscles using ultrasound feedback. Spinal manipulative therapy included joint mobilization and manipulation. Primary outcomes were patient-specific function (PSFS, 3-30) and global perceived effect (GPE, -5 to 5) at 8weeks. These outcomes were also measured at 6 and 12months. Follow-up was 93% at 8weeks and 88% at 6 and 12months. The motor control exercise group had slightly better outcomes than the general exercise group at 8weeks (between-group difference: PSFS 2.9, 95% CI: 0.9-4.8; GPE 1.7, 95% CI: 0.9-2.4), as did the spinal manipulative therapy group (PSFS 2.3, 95% CI: 0.4-4.2; GPE 1.2, 95% CI: 0.4-2.0). The groups had similar outcomes at 6 and 12months. Motor control exercise and spinal manipulative therapy produce slightly better short-term function and perceptions of effect than general exercise, but not better medium or long-term effects, in patients with chronic non-specific back pain. 相似文献

[Purpose] This study examined the effects of lumbar stabilization exercises on the
functional disability and lumbar lordosis angles in patients with chronic low back pain.
[Subjects] The subjects were 30 patients with chronic low back pain divided into a lumbar
stabilization exercise group (n = 15) and a conservative treatment group
(n = 15). [Methods] The lumbar stabilization exercise and conservative
treatment groups performed an exercise program and conservative physical treatment,
respectively. Both programs were performed 3 times a week for 6 weeks. The degree of
functional disability was assessed by the Oswestry disability index, and lumbar lordosis
angles were measured by plain radiography. [Results] The Oswestry disability index
decreased significantly in the both groups; however, it was significantly lower in the
lumbar stabilization exercise group. The lumbar lordosis angle increased significantly in
the lumbar stabilization exercise group after treatment and was also significantly greater
than that in the conservative treatment group. [Conclusion] Lumbar stabilization exercise
is more effective than conservative treatment for improving functional disability and
lumbar lordosis angles.Key words: Lumbar stabilization exercise, Lumbar lordosis angle, Chronic low back pain 相似文献

[Purpose] This study aimed to identify the effects of the CORE exercise program on pain
and active range of motion (AROM) in patients with chronic low back pain. [Subjects and
Methods] Thirty subjects with chronic low back pain were randomly allocated to two groups:
the CORE group (n = 15) and the control group (n = 15). The CORE group performed the CORE
exercise program for 30 minutes a day, 3 times a week, for 4 weeks, while the control
group did not perform any exercise. The visual analog scale (VAS) and an algometer were
used to measure pain, and pain-free AROM in the trunk was measured before and after the
intervention. [Results] The CORE group showed significantly decreased VAS scores at rest
and during movement and had a significantly increased pressure pain threshold in the
quadratus lumborum and AROM in the trunk compared with those in the control group.
[Conclusion] This study demonstrated that the CORE exercise program is effective in
decreasing pain and increasing AROM in patients with chronic low back pain. Thus, the CORE
exercise program can be used to manage pain and AROM in patients with chronic low back
pain.Key words: CORE exercise program, Chronic low back pain (CLBP), Active range of motion (AROM) 相似文献

[Purpose] The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of 6 weeks sling
exercise training for clients with low back pain on the levels of pain, disability,
muscular strength and endurance. [Subjects and Methods] Twelve chronic LBP subjects
participated in this study. Subjects were randomly divided into a control group and a
training group. Subjects in the training group performed sling exercise training for six
weeks, and participants in the control group did not perform any exercise. [Results] Pain,
disability levels and muscular strength significantly improved in the training group, but
not in the control group. The left multifidus showed a significant improvement in muscular
endurance, measured as the slope of the median frequency after training. [Conclusion] Six
weeks of sling exercise training was effective at reducing pain intensity, and improving
the disability level and trunk muscular strength of subjects with low back pain.Key words: Chronic low back pain, Sling exercise training, Slope of median frequency 相似文献

[Purpose] In this study, we investigated the therapeutic effects of capacitive and resistive electric transfer therapy in patients with chronic low back pain. [Participants and Methods] The study included 24 patients with chronic low back pain (12 patients each in the intervention and sham groups). Pain intensity, superficial and deep lumbar multifidus stiffness and maximum forward trunk flexion and associated activation level of the iliocostalis (thoracic and lumbar component) and lumbar multifidus muscles were measured. [Results] Post-intervention pain intensity and muscle stiffness were significantly lower than pre-intervention measurements in the intervention group. However, no between-group difference was observed in the muscle activation level at the end-point of standing trunk flexion. [Conclusion] Our findings highlight a significant therapeutic benefit of capacitive and resistive electric transfer therapy in patients with chronic low back pain and muscle stiffness. 相似文献

[Purpose] To investigate whether pain, balance, and stabilization of the lumbar region
can be improved through thoracic mobilization in addition to lumbar stabilizaing
exercises. [Subjects and Methods] This study recruited 36 subjects with chronic low back
pain lasting more than 12 weeks. The subjects recruited for this study participated
voluntarily, and provided their signed consent to participation. [Results] Improvement in
balance was largest in the lumbar stabilization exercise group, followed by the thoracic
mobilization and exercise group, and the traditional physical therapy group, in decreasing
order of effect. [Conclusion] In conclusion, lumbar stabilization exercises combined with
thoracic mobilization had greater effects on stabilization of the lumbar region pain
relief, and improvement of the function of the patients with chronic low back pain.Key words: Lumbar stabilization exercises, Thoracic mobilization exercises, Chronic low back pain 相似文献

[Purpose] This study compared the coordination patterns of the trunk and pelvis in the
transverse plane between healthy subjects and patients with chronic low back pain during
an anterior load carriage task at various walking speeds. [Subjects] Ten healthy subjects
and 10 patients with chronic low back pain performed an anterior carriage task with a load
of 10% body weight at walking speeds of 3.5, 4.5, or 5.5 km/h. [Methods] The trunk and
pelvic kinematics were measured by using a motion analysis system. During the anterior
carriage task, the continuous relative phase differed significantly between groups with
respect to walking speed. [Results] The continuous relative phase was more anti-phase in
the chronic low back pain group than the control group. The inter-group continuous
relative phase pattern was affected by walking at 5.5 km/h. [Conclusion] Compared to
controls, subjects with chronic low back pain are unable to establish an in-phase between
the trunk and pelvis from walking at 3.5 to 5.5 km/h during an anterior carriage task.Key words: Anterior carriage task, Chronic low back pain, Trunk and pelvis coordination 相似文献

[Purpose] The purpose of this study was to determine how an exercise program focusing on
muscular strength could aid firefighters with chronic lower back pain. [Subjects] The
research subjects were randomly assigned to two groups, the experimental group (n=8) and
the control (n=8). [Methods] The experimental group performed two types of exercise
programs four times per week for 8 weeks under supervision. Tests were performed before
and after the 8 weeks of exercise in accordance with the Korea Occupational Safety and
Health Agency’s program. [Results] At the end of the 8 weeks of the rehabilitation
program, abdominal muscular strength were significantly increased in the experimental
group, and this indicates that the exercise therapy was effective for improvement of
muscular strength. [Conclusion] We found that exercise therapy is an effective
intervention that can reduce the pain of patients with chronic lower back pain. The
firefighters with chronic lower back pain who participated in this study exhibited
enhanced lower back muscular strength and obtained some additional benefits. They need
regular exercise.Key words: Firefighters, Lower back pain, Muscular strength 相似文献

[Purpose] To investigate whether thoracic spine mobilization added to stabilization
exercises increases the muscular strength and range of motion of the thoracic vertebrae of
chronic low-back pain patients. [Subjects] This study enrolled 20 patients with chronic
low back pain, who were divided into two groups. Ten subjects were randomly selected for
the stabilization exercise group and the remaining 10 subjects received thoracic spine
mobilization in addition to performing the stabilization exercises. [Methods] The patients
performed stabilization exercises and received thoracic spine mobilization for 12 weeks.
The range of motion and isometric muscular strength of the vertebrae of all subjects were
measured before and after the intervention. [Results] In the comparison of muscular
strength before and after the intervention, the change in muscular strength of the trunk
flexors in the stabilization exercise group was 16.0±7.4 Nm, and that of the thoracic
spine mobilization group was 34.2±7.6 Nm, a significant difference in each group. In the
post-intervention intergroup comparison, the muscular strength of trunk flexors in the
stabilization exercise group was 111.1±16.9 Nm, while that of the thoracic spine
mobilization group was 125.9±11.3 Nm, a significant difference. Also, the muscular
strength of the trunk extensors in the stabilization exercise group was 148.9±31.8 Nm,
while that of the thoracic spine mobilization group was 182.9±37.2 Nm, a significant
difference. The thoracic spine flexion in the stabilization exercise group was 29.8±9
degrees, while that of the thoracic spine mobilization group was 38.7±6.9 degrees, a
significant difference. However, there was no significant difference in lumbar flexion
values between the two groups. [Conclusion] Thoracic spine mobilization added to a
stabilization exercise increased the muscular strength of patients with chronic low back
pain.Key words: Isometric muscle strength, Lumbar stabilization exercise, Thoracic spine mobilization exercise 相似文献

[Purpose] The purpose of this study was to compare two methods for the muscle
stabilization of the trunk of patients with chronic low back pain. The methods comprised
combination patterns of proprioceptive neuromuscular facilitation (PNF) and ball exercise.
[Subjects and Methods] The subjects were 40 volunteers who had low back pain. All subjects
were randomly assigned to either a group which received proprioceptive neuromuscular
facilitation or a group which performed ball exercise. Measurements were taken four times
in total, at pre-intervention, two weeks later, four weeks later, and six weeks later. The
main measurement methods used were the visual analogue scale (VAS) for pain and
electromyography (EMG) for muscle activity. [Results] VAS and EMG activity were
significantly reduced in the PNF combination pattern group and the ball exercise group. A
comparison of the groups showed significant differences. In VAS and EMG activity; in
particular, the combination pattern group using PNF increased EMG activity more than the
ball exercise group did after six weeks of intervention. [Conclusion] This study showed
that PNF combination pattern training for six weeks was more effective for patients with
low back pain than performing ball exercise.Key words: PNF, Ball exercise, Chronic low back pain 相似文献

[Purpose] The purpose of this study was to examine the influence of mat Pilates and
apparatus Pilates on pain and static balance of businesswomen with chronic back pain.
[Subjects and Methods] Participants were randomly allocated to Pilates mat exercises (PME)
or Pilates apparatus exercise (PAE), and performed the appropriate Pilates exercises 3
days per week for 8 weeks. In order to measure the improvement in the participants’ static
balance ability as a result of the exercise, the sway length and sway velocity of the
subjects were measured before and after the experiment while the subjects stood on a
Balance Performance Monitor (BPM) facing the front wall for 30 seconds with their eyes
open. The visual analogue scale (VAS) was used to measure the degree of pain. [Results]
The VAS score, sway length, and sway velocity of both groups decreased significantly after
the experiment, but the PME group showed a greater decrease than the PAE group.
[Conclusion] PME showed greater improvement in pain level and balance compared with PAE in
this research. Since the subjects of this study were patients with low back pain, PME is
assumed to have been more suitable and effective because it uses body weight to strengthen
core muscles rather than heavier apparatuses as in PAE.Key words: Pilates mat exercise, Pilates apparatus exercises, LBP 相似文献

[Purpose] The purpose of this study was to examine the changes caused by lumbar
stabilization exercises in chronic low back pain patients. [Subjects and Methods] Swiss
ball exercise regimen group and sling exercise regimen group exercised for 30 minutes a
day, 5 days a week, for 12 weeks. The control group was to continue performing their usual
daily living activities. [Results] We obtained significant results in both the Swiss ball
and sling exercise groups, but not in the control group. The best effect was obtained in
the sling exercise group. [Conclusion] The Oswestry Low Back Pain Disability Index and
visual pain scale scores of the patients with low back pain decreased in both the Swiss
ball exercise group and the sling exercise group, and these patients experienced an
increase in waist isometric muscular strength after 12 weeks of exercise compared with
those doing no exercise (the control group).Key words: Lumbar stabilizing, Sling exercise, Chronic back pain 相似文献

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: Improving functional performance in patients with chronic low back pain is of primary importance. The purpose of this study was to examine the effects of 2 proprioceptive neuromuscular facilitation (PNF) programs on trunk muscle endurance, flexibility, and functional performance in subjects with chronic low back pain (CLBP). SUBJECTS: Eighty-six women (40.2+/-11.9 [mean+/-SD] years of age) who had complaints of CLBP were randomly assigned to 3 groups: rhythmic stabilization training, combination of isotonic exercises, and control. METHODS: Subjects trained with each program for 4 weeks with the aim of improving trunk stability and strength. Static and dynamic trunk muscle endurance and lumbar mobility were measured before, at the end of, and 4 and 8 weeks after training. Disability and back pain intensity also were measured with the Oswestry Index. RESULTS: Multivariate analysis of variance indicated that both training groups demonstrated significant improvements in lumbar mobility (8.6%-24.1%), static and dynamic muscle endurance (23.6%-81%), and Oswestry Index (29.3%-31.8%) measurements. DISCUSSION AND CONCLUSION: Static and dynamic PNF programs may be appropriate for improving short-term trunk muscle endurance and trunk mobility in people with CLBP. 相似文献

Dysfunction of spinal stability seems to be one of the causes of low back pain (LBP). It is thought that a large number of muscles have a role in spinal stability including the pelvic floor muscle (PFM). The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of PFM exercise in the treatment of chronic LBP. After ethical approval, a randomized controlled clinical trial was carried out on 20 women with chronic LBP. Patients were randomly allocated into two groups: an experimental and a control group. The control group was given routine treatment including electrotherapy and general exercises; and the experimental group received routine treatment and additional PFM exercise. Pain intensity, functional disability and PFM strength and endurance were measured before, immediately after intervention and at 3 months follow-up. In both groups pain and functional disability were significantly reduced following treatment (p<0.01), but no significant difference was found between the two groups (p>0.05). All measurements were improved in both groups (p<0.01) although patients in the experimental group showed greater improvement in PFM strength and endurance (p<0.01). It seems that the PFM exercise combined with routine treatment was not superior to routine treatment alone in patients with chronic LBP. 相似文献

Research regarding the effect of exercise on chronic benign axial pain is reviewed. Both chronic low back pain (LBP) and chronic neck pain are associated with weakness of the trunk and neck musculature; however, it is unknown whether weakness is a cause or effect. The relationship between incoordination of the neck or trunk musculature and chronic pain is unclear. Exercise is associated with improved strength and endurance and decreased pain in subjects with LBP but the literature is very sparse with respect to chronic neck pain. Range-of-motion is also diminished in those with LBP and improves with exercise, and is associated with abatement in symptoms. No evidence could be found regarding the effect of exercise on segmental motion. Exercise is also associated with improved function, however the mechanism whereby either pain report or function improves is unclear. A greater understanding of the role of exercise will require more specific studies of strength, coordination, motion, function, and pain. 相似文献
