About this trial
This study aims to analyze the efficacy of diaphragm stretching technique on symptomatology in young adults with nonspecific low back pain.
Eligibility criteria
This trial accepts healthy volunteersQualifiers

Treatments tested in this trial
Placebo Technique
Other interventionIn the control group, manual contact will be carried out without any therapeutic intention. This contact will be maintained for the same period of time as the experimental group.
Diaphragm Stretching
Other interventionThe participant will be in supine position and the researcher will be at the headrest of the examination table, placing his hands on the lower costal margin. Superior direction traction is performed during inspiration, remaining during expiration. The procedure is repeated for a maximum period of 4 minutes.
Treatment groups
Trial outcomes
Primary outcomes
Change in level of inspiratory capacity immediately after intervention
Assessment instruments to assess the degree of disability resulting from low back pain include the respiratory pressure meter.
Change in the level of disability derived from low back pain immediately after the intervention
Assessment instruments to evaluate the degree of disability resulting from low back pain include the Visual Analogue Scale. In this scale, a higher score indicates a greater level of pain, correlating with a worse outcome. Conversely, a lower score indicates less pain, corresponding to a better outcome.
Change in the level of functionality of the lumbar spine immediately after the intervention
Assessment instruments to assess the degree of disability resulting from low back pain include the Schober test.
Change in the level of functionality of the lumbar spine immediately after the intervention
Assessment instruments to assess the degree of disability resulting from low back pain include the measurement of the distance from the hands to the floor after forward flexion of the trunk while standing with knee extension (also known as the Finger Tip Test).
