Summary

This study tests whether a handheld vibration massager can reduce pain and improve sleep quality in people with non-specific low back pain lasting at least three months. Half of the 50 participants will receive vibration massager therapy from a physiotherapist, while the other half will receive standard physiotherapy (such as heat or ultrasound). The trial measures changes in pain-related disability and sleep quality over the study period.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance
vibration massager therapy
What this could lead to
If effective, vibration massager therapy could offer a simple, drug-free option for managing chronic low back pain and improving sleep.
What could go wrong
This is a small, early-stage trial with only 50 participants, so results may not apply to everyone. The therapy may provide only temporary relief.
