Brief Summary

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

The purposes of this study are to compare the effects of core stabilization exercises on pain intensity, functional disability and lumbar stability between using and not using the Swiss ball in patients with non-specific chronic low back pain.

Detailed Description

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

For Patient Registries:

The participant was screened for inclusion criteria and was asked to sign the informed consent prior to participate. A randomized control trial was performed with participants randomly divided into one of the two treatment groups: core stabilization exercise with ball and core stabilization exercise without ball by using sealed envelopes.

exercise with ball

The participant in core stabilization exercise with ball group performed 12 training sessions of the core stabilization exercises, 3 days/week for 4 weeks. Each exercise took 15 times/set and each participant did it repeatedly for 3 sets and rested 1 minute between sets. The total time of core stabilization exercise was 20 minutes and assessment time was 10 minutes.
