How to treat lower back pain? What is the most effective?
What did the study find?
“Four weeks following training IKT group shows more significant changes in pain intensity and player wellness scores than CST and control groups (P ≤ .001). Sports performance variables (40 m sprint, 4 × 5 m sprint, sub-maximal shuttle running, counter movement jump and squat jump)”
What does that mean?
In this study, we find that isokinetic strengthening, as in strengthening with motion is better and superior than Core stability training in an isometric capacity. In the case of the athlete. Athletes generally are moving during their sports and competition. If they are not strengthened through that range of motion actively and with motion, we don’t see the best carryover for pure stability training.
What does that mean for me?
It means in addition to a normal cost ability program, we must integrate movement and strengthening throughout the range of motion to further increase carryover to sport and decreasing every exacerbation of symptoms. Strengthening with motion throughout normal functional motions sports specific will be vital for a full recovery and prevention in the future.
How is CORE Physical Therapy in Omaha different?
Core Physical Therapy is different in many ways, and we strive to be that way every day. We work with our patients one on one every day with a same doctor of therapy. All of our doctors are trained in all times of manual three each treatment and therapeutic exercise for the functional athlete. Most of our athletes have a strength coaches, but we have strength certification coaches as well. We integrate a strengthening routine with stability routine to create symmetry and balance within the body for your particular body part, patient history, and also given your support and position within the sport. All needs are different all athletes are different and they should be treated that way individualized and personalized every step of the way.

Abstract
Background: Isokinetic training (IKT) and core stabilization training (CST) are commonly used for balance training in musculoskeletal conditions. The knowledge about the effective implementation of these training protocols on sports performances in university football players with chronic low back pain (LBP) is lacking.
Objective: To find and compare the effects of IKT and CST on sports performances in university football players with chronic LBP.
Design: Randomized, double-blinded controlled study.
Setting: University hospital.
Participants: Sixty LBP participants divided into isokinetic group (IKT; n = 20), core stabilization group (CST; n = 20), and the control group (n = 20) and received respected exercises for 4 weeks.
Outcome measures: Clinical (pain intensity and player wellness) and sports performances (40 m sprint, 4 × 5 m sprint, submaximal shuttle running, counter movement jump, and squat jump) scores were measured at baseline, after 4 weeks, 8 weeks, and 3 months.
Results: Four weeks following training IKT group shows more significant changes in pain intensity and player wellness scores than CST and control groups (P ≤ .001). Sports performance variables (40 m sprint, 4 × 5 m sprint, submaximal shuttle running, counter movement jump and squat jump) scores also show significant improvement in IKT group than the other 2 groups (P ≤ .001).
Conclusion: This study suggests that training through IKT improves pain intensity and sports performances than CST in university football players with chronic LBP.
