Journal Title: International Journal of Medical Science and Dental Research - Year 2019, Vol 2, Issue 2
Abstract
Non-specific low back pain is a symptom of low back pain that occurs without unknown cause, could result in pain, muscle spasms, and imbalance muscle, and decrease the stability of the abdominal and lower back muscles. Motor control exercise is a method that activates deep muscle and global muscle in order to improve the coordination, control, and capacity of the trunk muscles to enhance the functional ability of the lumbar. This study used an experimental study with a one-group pretest-posttest design. The sampling technique is purposive sampling with 20 respondents, age 35 – 65 years, no fracture, and receive no medication related to pain. Measuring tools used is Rolland Morris Disability Questionnaire to determine daily functional capabilities of the Lumbar joint before and after 12 times of MCE. The data collected is analyzed by SPSS 23.0 with significance value p<0.05. The results shown that 20 respondents had an increase in lumbar functional ability (p<0.01). The conclusion is motor control exercise is an effective treatment to increase functional ability of the lumbar joint in non-specific low back pain.
