Shahid Beheshti University of Medical Sciences The Scientific Journal of Rehabilitation Medicine 2251-8401 12 5 2023 11 22 Different Methods for Treating Pain, Functional Disability and Thickness of Back Muscles in Patients With Non-Specific Low Back Pain: A Review Study Different Methods for Treating Pain, Functional Disability and Thickness of Back Muscles in Patients With Non-Specific Low Back Pain: A Review Study 816 831 1101546 10.32598/SJRM.12.5.11 FA Ebrahim Mohammad Ali Nasab Firouzjah Department of Exercise Physiology and Corrective Exercises, Faculty of Sport Sciences, Urmia University, Urmia, Iran. 0000-0001-9567-8209 Azam Abbaszadeh Department of Sport Sciences, Faculty of Humanities, University of Hormozgan, Bandar Abbas, Iran. 0000-0002-2304-2030 Journal Article 2021 10 03 <strong>Background and Aims</strong> Low back pain (LBP) is the most common cause of activity limitation. Various treatments such as electrotherapy, hydrotherapy, and exercise therapy have been suggested to improve nonspecific LBP. The present study aims to review studies that have investigated the effect of different methods on pain and disability in people with nonspecific LBP.<br /><strong>Methods </strong>This is a review study. A search was first conducted in Google Scholar, ScienceDirect, PubMed, and Scopus databases for related articles published from 2016 to 2021 using the keywords exercise therapy, corrective exercise, electrotherapy, treatment, and non-specific chronic low back pain. The PEDro scale was used to check the quality of articles.<br /><strong>Results </strong>Among the articles found, 15 were selected for the review. These studies mainly examined the effect of therapeutic methods on pain, functional disability, thickness, and activity of core muscles in people with non-specific chronic low back pain.<br /><strong>Conclusion </strong>Core stabilization exercises with an emphasis on deep muscles have a better effect on pain, functional disability, and muscle thickness of people with nonspecific LBP.  <strong>Background and Aims</strong> Low back pain (LBP) is the most common cause of activity limitation.
