NCT ID NCT06888895
First seen Oct 31, 2025 · Last updated May 17, 2026 · Updated 24 times
Summary
This study tests if adding active movement to passive hamstring stretches improves flexibility more than passive stretching alone in people with chronic low back pain. Ninety adults aged 18-65 with long-term back pain and tight hamstrings will be randomly assigned to one of two stretching groups. Researchers will measure flexibility, stiffness, and pelvic tilt before and after a single session to see which method works better.
