The effect of motor control training on kinetics variables of patients with non-specific low back pain and movement control impairment: Prospective observational study

Abstract Introduction The purpose of this study was to determine the effects of motor control training on pain, disability and motor control indices in patients with nonspecific low back pain (NSLBP) and movement control impairment (MCI) and also to evaluate the correlation between the changes in di...

Description
Summary:Abstract Introduction The purpose of this study was to determine the effects of motor control training on pain, disability and motor control indices in patients with nonspecific low back pain (NSLBP) and movement control impairment (MCI) and also to evaluate the correlation between the changes in disability and the motor control indices. Methods Thirty people with NSLBP and MCI based on a clinical examination were following either motor control training or normal activity over 8 weeks. Result Significant differences between pre and post training in the experimental group were found in pain, disability and motor control indices. There were significant correlations between disability index with vertical ground reaction force (r = 0.43) and center of pressure (anterior-posterior) (r = 0.44) values. Conclusion The results of this study showed that motor control indices are responsive measures to capture change during motor control training directed at retraining neuromuscular control, reducing pain and disability.
