Trial design

Design model

Parallel

Treatments tested in this trial

  • three dimensional lumbar myofascial release

    Other intervention

    Three-dimensional (3D) MFR is a novel approach toward reducing fascial restrictions. It recognizes that fascia exists not only in a linear plane but also in complex multidirectional networks throughout the body.

  • conventional treatment.

Trial outcomes

Primary outcomes

1

Fremantle Back Awareness Questionnaire

The Fremantle Back Awareness Questionnaire (FreBAQ) has been found to possess adequate psychometric properties in low back pain (LBP) patients worldwide

Time frame
four weeks
2

Oswestry Low Back Pain Disability Questionnaire

The Oswestry Disability Index (ODI) a patient-completed questionnaire which gives a subjective percentage score of level of function (disability) in activities of daily living in those rehabilitating from low back pain

Time frame
four weeks

Secondary outcomes

1

pressure pain algometer

Algometers are designed to quantify and document levels of tenderness via pressure pain threshold measurement and pain sensitivity via pressure pain tolerance measurement.

Time frame
four weeks
2

visual analog scale

The pain VAS is a unidimensional measure of pain intensity, used to record patients' pain progression, or compare pain severity between patients with similar conditions

Time frame
four weeks
