Podiatry assessment for balance and pain in chronic back pain
Part of Mental health, Pain clinical trials.
This study looks at whether a foot and posture specialist can help measure how balance relates to the pain you feel in chronic low back pain. It may help doctors better understand what to focus on for pain that lasts for months.

This trial tests a stabilization training program using biofeedback (a device that shows you how your muscles are working) to treat chronic low back pain. It may help you strengthen the muscles supporting your spine and reduce your pain.
This study tests whether a virtual reality version of a common balance and mobility test is as good as the standard test for people with chronic low back pain. Participating could help improve how back pain is measured in the future.
This study tests a combination of two non-drug treatments for chronic low back pain: pain neuroscience education (learning about how pain works) and lumbar stabilization exercises (strengthening the muscles that support your spine). The goal is to reduce disability and the fear of movement that often comes with chronic pain.
This study checks whether a therapist’s judgment about how your back controls movement matches objective measurements (more technical testing). It may help improve how low back pain rehabilitation is assessed and planned.
This study looks at how different types of chronic low back pain affect your balance. It uses a special machine called the Biodex Balance System to measure your ability to balance, which may help doctors understand and treat your condition better.
This trial tests whether a special balance exercise program can help reduce long-term low back pain. It is for adults with nonspecific back pain lasting at least 3 months.
