What the trial is, and whether it could suit you

Low back pain (LBP) is a major global health concern, significantly affecting mobility, productivity, and quality of life. Non-specific low back pain (NSLBP), which accounts for most LBP cases, is associated with impaired proprioception, reduced lumbar range of motion (ROM), decreased muscular endurance, and altered neuromuscular control. Joint position error (JPE) is a key indicator of proprioceptive dysfunction, contributing to postural instability and movement impairments in NSLBP patients. Effective rehabilitation strategies are essential to improve functional outcomes and prevent recurrence. Exercise therapy, particularly core stabilization exercises, plays a crucial role in NSLBP management. Among various approaches, moderate-load eccentric core exercises and Pilates have gained attention for their potential benefits. Eccentric exercises improve neuromuscular control, proprioceptio
