Placebo-controlled randomised trials are the best method for evaluating efficacy of treatments. There is a limited but growing evidence base of placebo-controlled randomised trials investigating the analgesic effects of non-surgical and non-interventional treatments for non-specific low back pain. A study from Australia assesses the effectiveness of non-surgical and non-interventional treatments for adults with non-specific low
Sarcopenia, the age-related loss of muscle mass and function, is a significant health concern, particularly among older adults. It increases the risk of falls, fractures, and overall health decline, placing a substantial financial burden on healthcare systems. Current treatments primarily focus on resistance exercise and nutritional strategies, but these approaches face challenges such as patient
Flossing, a myofascial release (MR) technique, has gained attention for its potential to improve performance-related factors such as range of motion (ROM), muscle strength, and pain relief. This technique involves wrapping a natural rubber floss band around muscles and joints to apply pressure while performing active and passive movements. Recent studies suggest that flossing can
