Effect Of Mckenzie Exercises On Postural Stability In Mechanical Back Pain Patients With Prolonged Sitting Posture
Sponsor: Cairo University
Summary
Postural stability is a complex sensorimotor process that depends on the integration of visual, vestibular, and somatosensory inputs, and its impairment increases the risk of falls and negatively affects quality of life. Prolonged sitting and low physical activity negatively influence postural stability, whereas regular physical activity has a positive chronic effect, despite some exercises causing temporary instability due to fatigue. Breaking up sitting time with light walking or active workstations may improve postural stability, and this study aims to evaluate the effects of McKenzie back extension exercises on postural stability, pain, and quality of life in individuals with mechanical back pain.
