Clinical Trial: Effects of Thoracolumbar Fascia Myofascial Release in Chronic Low Back Pain

U.S., June 25 -- ClinicalTrials.gov registry received information related to the study (NCT07667062) titled 'Effects of Thoracolumbar Fascia Myofascial Release in Chronic Low Back Pain' on June 18.

Brief Summary: The thoracolumbar fascia (TLF) is thickened and stiffer in individuals with chronic non-specific low back pain (CNSLBP) and may contribute to pain persistence. Myofascial release (MFR) has been shown to reduce TLF stiffness acutely; however, its longer-term effects on fascial morphology and pain self-efficacy remain unclear. This randomized controlled trial will investigate the effects of a standardized 6-week MFR program targeting the thoracolumbar fascia compared with sham MFR in adults with CNSLBP. A total of 65 participants ag...
