Conditions

Myofascia Low back pain without any pathoanatomical cause Nonspecific low back pain

Interventions

In this study, two skin tests are being compared. The individual conducting the skin test is aware of the form being applied. However, the participants are not informed about the specific skin test

Eligibility

Age

18 Years to 64 Years

Inclusion criteria

Inclusion criteria: To be eligible to participate in this study, the NSCLBP subject must meet all of the following criteria, all in line with patient profile 2, Royal Dutch Guidelines for LBP [5]: Low back pain >=12 weeks, without dominant presence of central sensitization measured with the Central Sensitization Inventory (CSI >=39) [48], at least moderated pain during lumbopelvic flexion measured with the Numeric Rating Scale (NRS >=4) in the lumbosacral region with or without radiating pain in the gluteal region and the upper leg classified with the Quebec Task Force (QTF 1-3) [49], unable in touching the floor (FFD >=4.5cm ) [50], age between 25 and 65 years, Body Mass Index (BMI) range (18,5

Exclusion criteria

Exclusion criteria: Excluded are those who do not meet the abovementioned criteria and have or had a specific spinal disease, infection, presence of a tumor, osteoporosis, bone fracture, inflammatory disorder, or cauda equina syndrome, or a hip arthroplasty in the last 6 months [6]. Despite our stations for measuring muscle activity and trunk mobility not having a specific limit, participants weighing more than 150 kg will be excluded from participation due to the exclusion criteria related to the use of a physio plinth capable of supporting a maximum weight of 150 kg. Individuals who previously took part in our SKD-study [52] and/or are familiar with the DAMT-Test procedure as described in the 4xT for LBP shall be excluded from participation [53].
