Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The purpose of this current randomized clinical trial is to determine the effects of myofascial soft tissue release and kinesio taping on disability, pain, quality of life, autonomic nervous system and oxidative stress indicators in chronic low back pain.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

Design: Randomized Clinical Trial. Objective: to determine the effects of myofascial soft tissue release and kinesio taping on pain, disability, quality of life, and autonomic nervous system indicators.

Methods and Measures: sixty-four individuals will be randomly assigned to one of two groups.

Intervention: For 10-week, the group 1 will undergo treatment comprising a myofascial soft tissue release protocol (1/week) and the group 2 will recieve a kinesio taping treatment (1/week).

Main Outcome Measures: Intensity of pain, disability, quality of life, biochemical stimation intertitial fluid, body mass indicators, hormonal indicators, indicators of autonomic nevous system, and indicators of oxidative stress will be collected in both groups at baseline, 10 weeks and 15 weeks after the last intervention. Baseline demographic and clinical variables will be examined between both groups with an independent Student t-test for continuous data. Separate 2x3 model ANOVA with time (baseline, 10 weeks and 15 weeks) as the within-subjects factor, group will be to determine the effects of the treatment.

Myofascial Soft Tissue Release

* Protocol: Myofascial release on thoracolumbar fascia, Myofascial release on diaphragm, Myofascial release in the psoas fascia, Indirect Myofascial release restrictions in the public area, Myofascial release in lumbo-sacral decompression, Myofascial release on sacrum, and Myofascial release on the lumbar fascia.
* Myofascial release assisted the paravertebral fascia.
