Superficial back line release versus trigger points release in chronic nonspecific low back pain patients

The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of Superficial back line (SBL) release on pain, Pressure Pain Threshold (PPT), lumbar function, lumbar ROM, and balance in chronic nonspecific low back pain (CNSLBP) patients. Additionally, it aims to compare the effect of SBL release versus myofas...

Description
Summary:The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of Superficial back line (SBL) release on pain, Pressure Pain Threshold (PPT), lumbar function, lumbar ROM, and balance in chronic nonspecific low back pain (CNSLBP) patients. Additionally, it aims to compare the effect of SBL release versus myofascial trigger points (MTrPs) release on the same variables. This was a Randomized Controlled Trial (RCT) involving forty-eight male and female patients with CNSLBP. They were randomized via an online randomization web service into 3 groups: group A (n=16) received SBL release and exercises, group B (n=16) received MTrPs release and exercises, while group C (n=16) received exercises only. There were statistically significant improvements in all outcomes post-treatment in comparison to pre-treatment within the three groups (p
