dc.description.abstract | Clinical Scenario: Low back pain (LBP) is one of the most common complaints in adults. Research indicates that the implementation of global postural re-education may decrease pain in those with chronic low back pain and improve daily function. | |
dc.description.abstract | Clinical Question: How effective is the Global Postural Re-education technique in reducing chronic or non-specific low back pain in adults compared to conventional treatment methods? | |
dc.description.abstract | Summary of Key Findings: A search was conducted for articles comparing GPR to standard physical therapy techniques. Three articles were included in this critically appraised topic; two randomized controlled trials and one quasi-randomized controlled trial. All compared GPR to standard physical therapy techniques including static stretching and motor control exercises. All three articles found a significant improvement in both control and treatment groups, but a greater improvement in pain, daily function, and range of motion. | |
dc.description.abstract | Clinical Bottom Line: There is moderate level of evidence that clinicians may opt to use GPR and postural re-education methods when treating patients with chronic LBP to reduce pain levels, increase hip and back range of motion, and improve overall function with activities of daily living. | |
dc.description.abstract | Strength of Recommendation: The studies included in this review show level B evidence based on the SORT scale that GPR may be an effective treatment method for reducing chronic LBP short term compared to conventional treatment methods. | |
