About this study

Official title: Effect of Vojta on Balance and Quality of Life in Subject With Chronic Non-spacific Low Back Pain

. To investigate the effect of Vojta method on static balance ,dynamic balance, quality of life in patients with chronic non - specific low back pain

Read the detailed description

This randomized controlled trial is to investigate the effect of Vojta method on balance and quality of life in patients with chronic non-specific low back pain.

Forty patients (male and female) complaining of chronic non -specific low back pain was recruited to share in this study

. The recruited patients were randomly recruited into two groups; group A (control group) and group B (study group).

Group A: received conventional treatment of back pain which included; TENS 20 min and hot packs 10 min .The total treatment session is 30 min three session per week for four weeks Group B: received conventional treatment of back pain in addition to Vojta method. The total treatment session is 40 min.

Patient in both groups performed 10 sessions, 3 session per week

Being tested
conventional physical therapy, vojta therapy

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • conventional physical therapyOther

    conventional physical therapy in the form of transcutaneous electrical stimulation (TENS) for 20 min and hot pack for 10 min Each patient received 12 sessions three session per week.

  • vojta therapyOther

    Vojta Dynamic Neuromuscular Stabilization (DNS) is a therapy used to manage neurological and musculoskeletal conditions each patient in the study group (group B) was instructed to lie prone on an examination table with the participant's shoulders abducted, elbows flexed approximately 80-90°, and the forearms hanging off the edge of the table. Pressure-like stimulation of the calcaneus and ASIS were performed in the postural position named by Vojta as "reflex creeping.

    Each patient received 12 sessions three session per week.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. static and dynamic balance

    static and dynamic balance can assessed by using biodex balance system Each patient was instructed to maintain his/her balance for the period of the test.

    There was report gained after finishing every test includes information on medial lateral stability index(MLSI), overall stability index(OSI), and anterior posterior stability index (APSI) measurements will done twice before and after treatment for all patients in both group

    Measured: one month

  2. Oswestry Low Back Pain Disability Questionnaire

    The Oswestry Low Back Pain Disability Questionnaire is an extremely important tool that researchers and disability evaluators use to measure a patient's permanent functional disability and quality of life. The test is considered the 'gold standard' of low back functional outcome tools measurements will done twice before and after treatment for all patients in both group

    Measured: one month
