ClinConnect Summary

This clinical trial is studying how two different types of exercises can help people with chronic low back pain. The researchers want to see if adding "open chain" exercises (where your arms or legs are free to move) or "closed chain" exercises (where your arms or legs are in contact with a surface) to standard treatment can improve pain levels, how well you can move your lower back, and the size of a muscle called the multifidus, which supports the spine.

To join the trial, you need to be between 25 and 55 years old and have had low back pain for more than six months. You should be able to follow instructions and perform exercises. However, if you have a serious neurological or orthopedic disease, a psychological disorder, are pregnant, or have had certain spinal surgeries, you won't be eligible to participate. If you qualify, you can expect to engage in exercise routines and contribute to research that may help others with similar back pain issues in the future.
