Lumbar surgery is the most common treatment for chronic disabling low back pain with degenerative disc disease. There are few elements to objectively evaluate the improvement of the motor control after surgery and the motor adaptation capacities of the patients. The impact of lumbar surgery on complexity in this painful context has never been studied. Theoretically, the restriction of mobility imposed by lumbar surgery should limit the subject's adaptive capacities (of one or more lumbar segments) and thus reduce complexity. Nevertheless, improvement in pain intensity levels could allow the patient to find better motor adaptation capacities, necessary for a positive evolution in the long-term. The aim of this study was to investigate the evolution of gait complexity in chronic low back pain patients pre- and post-surgery. If surgery improves the adaptability of walking through an antalgic benefit exceeding the induced stiffness, the complexity of walking should be superior after surgery. This is a proof-of-concept study in which the study investigators hypothesize that measuring complexity by fractal analysis during a walking task will show the increase in gait complexity induced by lumbar surgery at 3 and 6 months after surgery.

This study is a randomized clinical trial to determine the effects of myofascial release therapy versus endurance training of trunk extensor muscles on pain, disability and muscle endurance in patients with mechanical back pain. A sample of 24 patients will be taken and divided into two groups each with 12 patients. Group A will receive myofascial release therapy and conventional physical therapy while group B will endurance training of trunk extensors and the conventional physical therapy protocol. The conventional physical therapy protocol will include a hot pack, back care advice, and postural modifications. The session will be around 40 to 45 min for each patient with four sessions per week. A total of four-week treatment regime will be given to the patients and assessment of the patient's pain, disability, and endurance with NPRS (numeric pain rating scale), Rolland Morris Disability Questionnaire and Sorenson Test will be done at the baseline, after the completion of treatment at pre interventional and post interventional to observe the long-term effects. The data will be analyzed using SPSS.

The study will be a randomized control trial to determine the effects of the cervicothoracic mobility program on pain, range of motion, and function in patients with chronic back pain. The purposive sampling technique will be used. A sample of 44 patients will be taken and divided into two groups each with 22 patients. Group A will be the experimental group and group B will be the control group. The experimental group will receive cervical mobility and thoracic mobility along with conventional physical therapy protocols like hot packs and exercise therapy protocol. Group B will be the control group and will receive the conventional physical therapy protocol like the hot pack and exercise therapy protocol. Exercise therapy includes the strengthening and stretching exercises of both neck and back muscles. The session will be around 40 to 45 min for each patient with three sessions per week on alternate days. A total of 3-week treatment program will be given to the patients and an assessment of the patient's pain, range of motion, and function with NPRS (numeric pain rating scale), goniometer, and ODI (Oswestry disability index) will be done at the baseline and after the completion of treatment at three weeks.

In this controlled, follow-up study the effects of immersion in 42℃ radon, natrium, calcium, bicarbonate content thermal-mineral water on clinical parameters and quality of life of patients with chronic low-back pain is evaluated. The participants in the intervention group are treated with balneotherapy plus usual care, while in the control group only with usual care. The planned participants number is 120. Follow up period is 3 months.

To compare the effects of static exercises with dynamic core stability on pain and disability in postpartum back pain.

This is a pilot study to determine if neuroscience education is acceptable to adults over 65 and if it can have an impact on pain, pain beliefs and gait speed

This study will involve treating low back pain associated with nerve injury with oral delta-9-tetrahydrocannabinol (Δ9-THC) or whole plant cannabis for eight weeks. Research subjects will consume either oral Δ9-THC (dronabinol), vaporized 3.7% Δ9-THC/5.6% CBD, or placebo. An analysis will then be determined to assess the risk--benefit ratio of dronabinol and vaporized 3.7% Δ9-THC/5.6% CBD .

The goal of this study is to compare the effect of aquatic exercises (AEG) to the aquatic exercises plus aerobic training (deep-water running) (AEDWRG) on functional status and pain in patients with specific chronic low back pain.

This is a single-site, randomized, Single-blinded, placebo-controlled, trial of Transcutaneous Magnetic Stimulation (TCMS) for the treatment of lower back pain. TCMS will be applied locally to the back in the location of a patient's pain.
