This study tests whether trunk muscle training can improve the quality of your movements and balance if you have chronic low back pain. It is designed for people with moderate pain and no other major health issues.
This study looks at how trunk stability, balance, and fatigue affect people with multiple sclerosis (MS) who have mild to moderate disability. It may help understand how these factors relate and could lead to better care.
This study looks at how the way your back muscles work together (motor control) relates to the shape of your spine seen on X-rays, in people with long-lasting low back pain that isn't caused by a specific condition. If you join, you'll help researchers understand this link, which could lead to better treatments.
This study compares breathing muscle function between people with chronic neck pain and healthy individuals. It aims to see if neck pain affects breathing muscles, which might lead to new treatments.
This study looks at how the brain controls back muscles in people with chronic disc injuries. It compares patients before surgery or physical therapy to healthy controls to better understand muscle function.
This trial measures how well you can use your arms and how strong your breathing and other muscles are if you have chronic low back pain. It aims to understand the links between these factors to improve future treatments.
