Neck Exercises for Improving Pelvic Alignment and Low Back Pain

Taiwan30 participantsStarted 2018-09-01

Plain-language summary

This study aimed to investigate whether a three-dimensional nuchal exercise program is associated with changes in pelvic alignment and low back pain in adults. Thirty participants with low back pain performed a structured cervical exercise program for four weeks, including horizontal, sagittal, and diagonal movements. Pelvic tilt angle and pain intensity were measured before and after the intervention. The findings of this study may provide preliminary evidence supporting a potential relationship between cervical movement and pelvic alignment, contributing to the understanding of regional interdependence in musculoskeletal rehabilitation.
