Abstract
Objective: Back pain is one of the most common musculoskeletal diseases, which is seen in 80% of people. Pain caused by this disease, which is one of the causes of movement control disorder. Exercise therapy is one of the well-known methods for treating back pain. However, the knowledge of the most effective therapeutic exercise method is still in the aura of uncertainty. Considering the above information and the lack of a reliable exercise treatment method for back pain, the purpose of this study is to investigate the effect of 8 weeks of central stability exercises with a suspension approach on the pain and disability of working gymnasts with non-specific chronic back pain.
Methods: The present research is semi-experimental. The statistical sample of the research included 20 female gymnasts with an age range of 20 to 30 years, who were divided into two equal experimental and control groups in a simple random manner. Pain and disability indices were evaluated using VAS questionnaires and Oswestry disability questionnaire in the pre-examination stage, respectively. After completing the pre-test phase, the subjects of the training group performed central stability exercises on an unstable level for 8 weeks. After the exercises, all the measurements were repeated in the post-test phase. The statistical method of covariance analysis was used to analyze the data at a significance level of P<0.05 using spss software version 22.
Results: The results of analysis of covariance showed that after eight weeks of central stability exercises at an unstable level, the pain and disability of working gymnasts suffering from non-specific chronic back pain was reduced, while no significant difference was observed in the control group (P < 0.05).
conclusion: According to the results of the research, it is suggested to use central stability exercises at the unstable level in treatment and rehabilitation centers to reduce pain and disability.
