Cognitive Behavioral Therapy: Beneficial And Low Cost Treatment For Back Pain
An article published in this week’s issue of The Lancet reports that group cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) can reduce low-back pain at a low cost to the health-care provider. Furthermore, one year after the start of treatment, the improvement was sustained.

The rarity of the syndrome has prevented the establishment of specific guidelines for management; therefore, we will discuss this case in the context of similar previously reported cases, contrasting the various treatment approaches and outcomes described in previous reports. This discussion outlines a syndrome not commonly considered in the differential diagnosis of back pain.

The effectiveness of the McKenzie method in addition to first-line care for acute low back pain: a randomized controlled trial
Conclusions: When added to the currently recommended first-line care of acute low back pain, a treatment programme based on the McKenzie method does not produce appreciable additional short-term improvements in pain, disability, function or global perceived effect. However, the McKenzie method seems to reduce health utilization although it does not reduce patient’s risk of developing persistent symptoms.Trial Registration: Australian New Zealand Clinical Trials Registry: ACTRN12605000032651 (Source: BMC Medicine)

Spinal decompression devices watch your back

Spinal decompression devices watch your back
Fitness stores sell a variety of spinal decompression/traction devices — inversion tables and ankle boots that hang you upside down and stretch out your back — on the promise that they help relieve back pain, enhance general back fitness, provide deep relaxation and maybe even slow age-related height shrinkage. The last, after all, is partially caused by the flattening and dehydration of the soft disks that separate your vertebrae. (Source: L.A. Times - Health)

Low back pain during pregnancy in Iranian women: Prevalence and risk factors.
Authors: Ansari NN, Hasson S, Naghdi S, Keyhani S, Jalaie S Low back pain (LBP) is a common and often disabling condition that deserves attention. Although LBP during pregnancy is a common clinical problem, only one study was found documenting prevalence of LBP during pregnancy in Iran. No investigation evaluated the diagnostic value of possible risk factors. The aims of the present, cross-sectional study were 1) to ascertain the prevalence of LBP of Iranian women during pregnancy and compare to other ethnic/cultural groups and 2) identify risk factors associated with LBP during pregnancy in Iranian women. One hundred three women were interviewed in the obstetric ward of a university hospital within 48 hours after giving birth. Possible risk factor associations were studied by using no…
