Abstract
|
|
|
Objectives : The purpose of this study is to explore the latest trends of Chuna(chiropractic) treatment on low back pain.
Methods : We investigated the latest studies on Chuna(chiropractic) treatments for low back pain via searching PubMed. 19 research papers were analyzed and the journals, the authors, countries, methods, periods, techniques of chiropractic, instruments of assessment, and ethics approvals of those research papers were examined.
Results : Studies on Chuna(chiropractic) treatments were mainly published via J Manipulative Physiol Ther. The technique of chiropractic that most frequently adopted in the researchs was high-velocity low-amplitude thrust technique(HLVA). Numeric rating scale(NRS), oswestry disability questionnaire(ODI), and Roland-Morris disability index(RMDQ) were used as primary outcome assessments. There were no ethical problems found on the studies investigated.
Conclusions : Reviewing the latest trends of studies on Chuna(chiropractic) treatments for low back pain and figuring out the strong points and weak points of those treatments are necessary to future studies. It is anticipated that this review would benefit the in-depth treatments for low back pain in terms of Korean medicine.
