Abstract
Background: Low back pain is one of the most common issues among the general population, with various types, and non-specific chronic low back pain is considered one of the costliest forms of back pain. Therefore, the aim of the present study was to determine the impact of 6 weeks of DNS (Dynamic Neuromuscular Stabilization) exercises on muscle endurance and static and dynamic balance in patients with non-specific chronic low back pain.
Methods: Thirty individuals with non-specific chronic low back pain participated in the study, divided into DNS exercise and control groups. Muscle endurance levels, static balance and dynamic balance were assessed using the McGill endurance test, the stork test, and the Y balance test respectively. After the initial assessment, participants in the exercise group performed DNS exercises for 6 weeks, while the control group continued their regular exercises during this period. The normal distribution of data was confirmed using the Shapiro-Wilk test, and group differences were analyzed using analysis of covariance (ANCOVA).
results: The results of the study indicated a significant impact of DNS exercises on the endurance of flexor, extensor, right lateral, left lateral, and central muscles (p ≤ 0.05). Similarly, DNS exercises showed a significant effect on static balance, anterior dynamic balance, external posterior dynamic balance, internal posterior dynamic balance, and overall dynamic balance (p ≤ 0.05). Additionally, intergroup Conclusion: comparisons revealed a significant difference between the DNS exercise group and the control group. Considering the study results, the use of DNS exercises is recommended for individuals with non-specific chronic low back pain.
