AbstractBackground

Non‐specific chronic low back pain disorders have been proven resistant to change, and there is still a lack of clear evidence for one specific treatment intervention being superior to another.

Methods

This randomized controlled trial aimed to investigate the efficacy of a behavioural approach to management, classification‐based cognitive functional therapy, compared with traditional manual therapy and exercise. Linear mixed models were used to estimate the group differences in treatment effects. Primary outcomes at 12‐month follow‐up were Oswestry Disability Index and pain intensity, measured with numeric rating scale. Inclusion criteria were as follows: age between 18 and 65 years, diagnosed with non‐specific chronic low back pain for >3 months, localized pain from T12 to gluteal folds, provoked with postures, movement and activities. Oswestry Disability Index had to be >14% and pain intensity last 14 days >2/10. A total of 121 patients were randomized to either classification‐based cognitive functional therapy group n = 62) or manual therapy and exercise group (n > = 59).

Results

The classification‐based cognitive functional therapy group displayed significantly superior outcomes to the manual therapy and exercise group, both statistically (p < 0.001) and clinically. For Oswestry Disability Index, the classification‐based cognitive functional therapy group improved by 13.7 points, and the manual therapy and exercise group by 5.5 points. For pain intensity, the classification‐based cognitive functional therapy improved by 3.2 points, and the manual therapy and exercise group by 1.5 points.

Conclusions

The classification‐based cognitive functional therapy produced superior outcomes for non‐specific chronic low back pain compared with traditional manual therapy and exercise.
