Background and Aim: Chronic low back pain is one of the most common clinical problems for which various treatments have been carried out so far. Considering the abdominal drawing maneuver effects on the performance of lumbopelvic muscles and the effect of these muscles themselves on the lumbar lordosis, and also having in mind the relationship between lumbar lordosis and low back pain, the present study was carried out to investigate the effect of ADIM on the lumbar lordosis angle in patients with chronic low back pain.
Materials and Methods: A total of 15 women with chronic low back pain and lumbar hyperlordotic posture took part in the study. To measure the lumbar lordosis angle in standing posture, we used the Cobb method in radiographies with lateral view.
Results: The mean difference between the lodosis angles (before and after applying the maneuver) was 11.276, meaning that prior to applying the ADIM, the lordosis angle was more than that after applying it (P<0.05).
Conclusion: According to the findings, applying ADIM in standing position in patients with chronic low back pain and lumbar hyperlordotic posture can result in lordosis decrease and lumbar alignment improvement and it also decreases the chronic pain in this region.
