Hip muscle training for long-lasting low back pain
Part of Bones, joints & muscles, Pain clinical trials.
This study tests a muscle training program for the hips to see if it reduces chronic low back pain. It focuses on strengthening the muscles that flex and extend the hip, which may help support the lower back and decrease pain.
