Abstract

Purpose:
Low back pain is a common debilitating condition and an important clinical and socio-economic issue in most industrial and non-industrial communities. There are several methods for low back pain rehabilitation, but achieving shorter, simpler methods is a requirement of today's industrialized societies. The aim of this study was to review the effect of exercise rehabilitation protocols on pain and functional disability in people with nonspecific low back pain.
Methods:
Literature search between years of 2010 and 2021 and from domestic search engines such as Iran Medex, ISC, SID, Magiran, Irandoc, Doaj, Google Scholar using the keywords including chronic low back pain, rehabilitation, protocol, training, pain and functional disability were used to find related articles.
Results:
A total of 16 high quality articles were selected for inclusion criteria. These studies mainly led to the impact of the protocol. The training sections focused on pain and functional disability in people with non-specific chronic low back pain.
Conclusion:
According to the studies reviewed in the present study, it seems that exercise rehabilitation protocols that activate and strengthen the muscles of the central region of the body, especially the multifidus, supraspinatus, diaphragm and pelvic floor muscles, improve pain. Functional disability is nonspecific in people with chronic low back pain.
