Brief Summary:
This study aims to analyze the efficacy of diaphragm stretching technique on symptomatology in young adults with nonspecific low back pain
Detailed Description:
Nonspecific low back pain occurs when there is an imbalance in the lower back between functional load and the ability to perform daily tasks It is characterized as such when there is no specific and well-determined diagnosis and there are no structural changes
The diaphragm and abdominal muscles together create a hydraulic effect in the abdominal cavity which helps stabilize the spine providing rigidity to the lumbar spine by increasing intra-abdominal pressure Diaphragmatic changes in patients diagnosed with low back pain may contribute to the lack of spinal control activity through several mechanisms Thus it is concluded that the diaphragm is anatomically related to the lumbar spine through its muscle fibers
There are articles that relate the topic of low back pain with Osteopathic Manual Treatment demonstrating that despite this lack of scientific evidence the results obtained at a clinical level are favorable
This study aims to evaluate the effectiveness of diaphragm stretching techniques on symptoms experienced by young adults with non-specific low back pain
In this study the investigators will analyze the effects of the diaphragm stretching technique on the following variables the sniff nasal inspiratory pressure test SNIP test Visual Analogue Scale VAS score the Schober test and measurement of the distance between the fingers and the ground during anterior flexion of the trunk without flexion of the lower limbs also known as the Finger Tip Test
