A back exercise for university students with low back pain
Part of Pain clinical trials.
This trial tests a simple back exercise (multifidus lift) to see if it improves back endurance, pain, and function in university students with low back pain. If you have ongoing low back pain, this could help you learn a safe exercise to strengthen your back.
