Official Title: The Investigation of Underlying Mechanism of Lumbar Multifidus Muscle Activation Deficits in Adults With Chronic Low Back Pain
Brief Summary:
The goal of this clinical trial is to investigate mechanism underlying lumbar multifidus muscle (LM) activation deficits in adults with chronic low back pain (CLBP).The main questions it aim to answer is whether motor cortex or muscular level is the underlying mechanism responsible for the LM activation deficits.Participants will:Undergo cortical excitability measurement using transcranial magnetic stimulation, LM activation measurement using ultrasound imaging, and force measurement using hand-held dynamometer.Be…
