Summary

This trial tests whether Mind-Body Pilates or pressure biofeedback training better eases chronic non-specific low back pain, strengthens core muscles, and improves quality of life. Adults aged 40-55 with back pain lasting at least 12 weeks will participate in a 6-week supervised program. The study compares the two methods to see which offers greater relief and functional improvement.

What this could mean

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

Active substance

What this could lead to
If successful, this could point toward more effective exercise-based treatments for chronic low back pain, potentially improving pain management and quality of life without medication.
What could go wrong
