NCT ID NCT07477717
First seen Mar 25, 2026 · Last updated Jun 23, 2026 · Updated 15 times
Summary
This study tests whether adding latissimus dorsi (upper back) strengthening to standard gluteal exercises can better reduce pain and improve pelvic alignment in people with sacroiliac joint dysfunction. Forty adults aged 35-55 with chronic low back pain from this condition will be split into two groups: one doing only gluteal exercises, the other adding upper back exercises. Over 6 weeks, researchers will measure pain, disability, and pelvic position changes.

What this could lead to
If successful, this could offer a more effective exercise approach for managing sacroiliac joint pain and improving daily function.
What could go wrong
This is a small, early-stage trial with only 40 participants, so results may not apply to everyone. Exercise programs also depend on patient adherence and proper technique.
