Summary

The purpose of the current randomized clinical trial was to compare the effectiveness of myofascial soft tissue release versus mobilization with impulse technique torsion (anterior) on pain, disability, and kinesiophobia in individuals with chronic non-specific low back pain.

Detailed description

Design: Randomized Clinical Trial. Objective: to determine the effects of myofascial soft tissue release versus mobilization with impulse technique torsion (anterior) on pain, disability and kinesiophobia in individuals with chronic non-specific low back pain. Methods and Measures: sixty-four individuals will be randomly assigned to one of two groups. Intervention: For 12-week, the group 1 will undergo treatment comprising a myofascial soft tissue release protocol (1/week) and the group 2 will receive a mobilization with impulse technique torsion (anterior) (1/week). Main Outcome Measures: Intensity of pain, disability, fear of movement, isometric endurance of trunk flexor muscles and lumbar mobility in flexion data will be collected at baseline, and 24hr after the last manual therapy application. Mixed-model analyses of variance will be used to examine the effects of the treatment on each outcome measure.

Conditions

• Low Back Pain
• Chronic Disease

Interventions

Type	Name	Description
OTHER	Myofascial Soft Tissue Release	Protocol: Transverse Plane-Level Clavicular Release. Diaphragmatic Transverse Plane Release. Square the Lumbar Fascia Release. Gluteal Fascia Release. Hint Of Pubic Region Release. Fascia Psoas Release. Lumbo-sacral Decompression. Pelvic Floor Release.
OTHER	Mobilization with impulse technique.	Subject in lateral decubitus with extension and lower limb traction contact the couch with contralateral lower limb was performed triple flexion and left trunk rotation. This technique reduces the slack (tension joints) of the ventral pelvis, head and into the contralateral side of the sacrum support (base) with the forearm.
