Brief Summary

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

The study was about a root cause of Primary Osteoarthritis Lumbar Spine producing disabilities in sitting, climbing and walking etc. In advance stage the person is bereft of his/her personal physical activities. The prevalent treatment is temporary and dis-satisfactory. A new treatment was designed and a trial was conducted on 154 patients (100 in the trial group, 50 in the control group) for a duration of six months.

Detailed Description

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

The study was focused on establishing the cause, pathogenesis and treatment of painful Lumbar Spine disease (Primary Osteoarthritis Lumbar Spine = OA Lumbar Spine) at present the exact cause and treatment are not known. It was aimed to find out to latter through a hypothesis by designing a treatment and testing it with a clinical trial.

This established that the deficient full extension of the spinal joints (intervertebral joints between the adjacent vertebrae from T12 to S1) producing contracture in their capsules in front, was the cause and the correction (Contracture Correction Therapy = CCT) was the cure of the disease. The correction was carried out by intermittent and sustained extension of the lumbar spin through three designed body postures.
