Immediate Effects of a Single Session of Motor Skill Training on the Lumbar Movement Pattern During a Functional Activity in People With Low Back Pain: A Repeated-Measures Study.

ABSTRACT: Background:People with low back pain (LBP) may display an altered lumbar movement pattern of early lumbar motion compared to people with healthy backs. Modifying this movement pattern during a clinical test decreases pain. It is unknown whether similar effects would be seen during a functional activity. Objective:The objective of this study was to examine the lumbar movement patterns before and after motor skill training, effects on pain, and characteristics that influenced the ability to modify movement patterns. Design:The design consisted of a repeated-measures study examining early-phase lumbar excursion in people with LBP during a functional activity test. Methods:Twenty-six people with chronic LBP received motor skill training, and 16 people with healthy backs were recruited as a ref
