Effectiveness of resisted training through translation of the pelvis in chronic low back pain.

Background: Resisted training of the trunk muscles improves outcomes in chronic low back pain (CLBP). The Itensic b-effect machine was designed to provide resisted training through posterior translation of the pelvis in a seated, forward-tilted position, in contrast with traditional machines that involve extension of the trunk.

Objective: To study the effectiveness of lumbopelvic training on the Itensic b-effect machine in individuals with CLBP.
