Intervention(s)
|
Twelve week treatment program delivered during one 60min session once per week. All treatment sessions are one-on-one. There is a home training component - 30mins 5x/week. The intervention comprises discussion of the low back pain experience, laterality recognition and tactile acuity training, motor imagery and feedback enhanced functional movement training. The treatments are not mutually exclusive and are likely to overlap. Discussion of the low back pain experience - delivered over twelve weeks Laterality recognition training - delivered over eleven weeks - involves distinguishing between images of trunks rotated to left or right using Recognise (NOIgroup) software package Tactile acuity training - delivered over ten weeks - involves localising and/or discriminating between different types of non-noxious tactile stimuli or multiple simultaneous non-noxious tactile stimuli applied by the therapist to the lower back. Motor Imagery - delivered over ten weeks - involves mental visualisation of movements of the lower back and lower limbs, with or without videos Feedback enhanced functional movement training - delivered over seven weeks - involves graded, individualised training of functional movement patterns with mirror visual feedback Interventions will be monitored using an individual treatment diary
