“…These results agree with those of Macedo et al (26), who administered 20 isostretching sessions with nine female patients with low back pain, given that both showed a statistically signi icant improvement in the strength of trunk extensors. These results also agree with indings of Rosary et al (29), which showed improved muscle strength in ten women with eight RPG sessions, where postures were administered in the coxo-femoral angle opening and closure.…”

“…Similar to the present study, in addition to these mentioned indings, Macedo et al (26) also found a statistically signi icant difference in improved abdominal strength, trunk and gluteal extension when compared to the control group. Strength gain favors stability of the spine joints, which will support the resolution of the condition and prevention of relapses.…”

“…These studies showed improved functional capacity (23 -27) of muscular endurance (26), lexibility (23,24) and reduction in pain intensity (23 -25). However, in addition to the great methodological diversity employed in these studies, when isostretching is compared with conventional kinesiotherapy, no signi icant differences were identi ied (25).…”

“…Assessment of pain intensity was performed using the pain Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) (40); functional capacity was assessed using the Roland-Morris Questionnaire (RMQ) (41); lexibility was assessed using the Sit and Reach test (42); Dinamometry was used to evaluate the muscle strength of trunk extensors (43), with the device BACK -A, TYPE -2, and the Maximum Repetition test in a minute -MR, which was also applied to assess abdominal muscle strength (26). Postural analysis was also applied based on the concepts of muscle chains (44) for choosing the therapeutic postures.…”

“…Then, the therapist asked the patient to demonstrate his maximum trunk extension, by analyzing the amplitude, and then the patient performed the largest number of movements of the same amplitude in one minute. The abdominal MR was performed with the patient supine with bent and stabilized legs, arms crossed in the anterior chest region, and then the therapist asked the patient to perform the largest number of trunk lexions in a minute (26).…”

Effect of global postural re-education and isostretching in patients with nonspecific chronic low back pain: a randomized clinical trial [I] Efeitos da reeducação postural global e do isostretching em pacientes com lombalgia crônica não-específi ca: ensaio clínico aleatório [A] Fábio Alexandre Moreschi Guastala [a] , Mayara Hilda Guerini [ Abstract Introduction: Low back pain is one of the most prevalent musculoskeletal disorders, but little is known about postural methods in its treatment. Objective: Analyze changes in muscle strength, lexibility, function and pain in patients with chronic low back pain that underwent isostretching and global posture reeducation (GPR). Methods: Thirty-nine patients, aged between 40 and 59 years, were evaluated before and after treatment protocols regarding: lexibility for sit and reach, muscle strength, functional capacity using the Rolland-Morris Questionnaire, and intensity of pain by Visual Analog Scale. The sample was randomized into two groups (1-GPR; 2-Isostretching), all of whom were treated individually through 12 sessions lasting 45 minutes each, twice a week. Results: After treatment, median reduction in pain intensity of 28 mm in group 1 and 32 mm in group 2 was observed, and a median improvement in functional capacity in group 1 of 8.5 points and 7 points in group 2 (p < 0,05). A mean improvement of severn repetitions in trunk extensor muscle strength was observed in group 1 and in group 2; by dynamometry of 10 kg / f in group 1 and 12.5 kg / f in group 2 of ten abdominal repetitions strength in group 1 and four repetitions in group 2 (p < 0.05).In the Sit and Reach, Group 1 had a total mean increase of 3cm, and group 2 had 1.6cm (p < 0.05). Conclusion: Both groups were effective in improvement of muscle strength, lexibility, pain and functional capacity. Keywords
