Low back pain oswestry disability index changes following 8-week movement proficiency exercise program – A retrospective cohort study

Chronic low back pain (CLBP) is a worldwide epidemic, with prevalence rate of 75–84% in developed countries. With the increasing, health-care professionals must question current best practice guidelines. In 2014, spinal neurosurgeon and rehabilitation specialist Dr. David Johnson unique program referred to as NearoHAB®. The program’s uniqueness founded on principle that effective eliminate root cause symptoms. NeuroHAB® 8-week Movement therapy aims reverse movement dysfunction by restoring central nervous system-derived motor patterns based proficient spinopelvic biomechanics for bending activities daily living. To date, no other methodology adopts cause-based clinical model symptoms or includes framework what healthy lumbar pelvic should resemble. Over course program, each participant gradually upskilled, developing new default proficiency improved biomechanics, efforts downregulate pain, improve disability, increase functional capacity, creating positive feedback loop further progress. leading this study “How does movement-based impact chronic pain?” Ten sets details were selected at random retrieved from database 2020. All participants presented CLBP, two oswestry disability index (ODI) scores documented – first beginning second after intervention. ODI collated pre- post-program results measured compared quantitatively through paired t-test determine statistical significance improvement. Results showed two-tailed P=0.05 indicating there was significant difference between post-data (0.0024). post-group intervention means 25.80 13.30, respectively, resulting 12.50 (95% CI: 5.73–19.27); determining mean data post-intervention decreased 48.4496%. support alternative hypothesis, concluding an represented reduction LBP scores.
