About this trial

This is an interventional treatment trial for Low Back Pain

Eligibility Criteria

18 Years - 60 Years (Adult)All SexesDoes not accept healthy volunteers

Inclusion Criteria:

  • Currently suffering spinal related pain (neck, thoracic or lumbar).
  • Not receiving additional treatment for the treated condition.

Exclusion Criteria:

  • Presence of red flags such as tumors or infection.
  • Recent surgery.
  • Fractures.

Sites / Locations

Arms of the Study

Arm 1

Arm 2

Arm Type

Active Comparator

Sham Comparator

Arm Label

Spinal manipulation

Sham manipulation

Arm Description

Spinal manipulation to the spine will be applied to participants enrolled in this group.

Sham technique wich mimic the intervention manipulation with less force and different body location will be applied.

Outcomes

Primary Outcome Measures

Visual analogical scale
Pain was measured using a visual analogical scale (VAS). The VAS consists of a 10-cm line, with the left extremity representing (absence of pain) and the right extremity indicating (the worse pain devisable). Participants were asked to indicate in the scale their current level of pain being higher values related with more intense pain

Secondary Outcome Measures

Oswestry Disability Index
The Oswestry Disability Index is a 10 item questionnaire measuring low back pain related disability. Individual item scores range from 0 to 5. Scores on all items are summed and multiplied by 2 to provide a percentage ranging between 0 to 100 with higher scores indicating greater low back pain related disability.
Range of Motion
The spinal range of motion will be assessed with a digital inclinometer which indicates the results in angular degrees.
