About this trial
Chronic non-specific low back pain is commonly associated with impaired movement control. Movement control training is often used in rehabilitation, and different cueing methods may influence how patients perform and learn movements.
The purpose of this randomized controlled trial is to compare the immediate effects of manual cueing and verbal cueing during movement control training in individuals with chronic non-specific low back pain. Participants will be randomly assigned to receive either manual cueing or verbal cueing during a standardized movement training session.
The study will examine immediate changes in movement control performance, perceived difficulty, and related clinical outcomes following the intervention. The results of this study may help clinicians better understand how different cueing strategies influence movement performance in people with chronic non-specific low back pain.
