This study conducted the following experiment to examine effects of cardiovascular function on lumbar stabilization exercise(LSE) in floor or swiss ball. This experiment was conducted to compare heart rate, systolic blood pressure, diastolic blood pressure and peripheral vascular oxygen saturation effects by lumbar stabilization exercise in floor or swiss ball with 18 normal adult and it divided 9 subjects. experiment group (1) is applying LSE on floor group and (2) is applying LSE on swiss ball group. Heart rate was measured by portable heart rate manometer, blood pressure was measured by hemodynamometer, and peripheral vascular oxygen concentration was measured using a computerized NURYTEC measuring apparatus analysis. These result lead us to the conclusion that systolic blood pressure and peripheral vascular oxygen concentration were influenced by LSE. but there was not differential effect between each groups. These results suggest that LSE has the capability to improve heart rate, blood pressure, peripheral vascular oxygen concentration. Consequently, LSE would be lead to increment of cardiovascular function.

Purpose : The purpose of this study was to identify the effect of lumbar stabilization exercise (LSE) and isometric lumbar strengthening exercise (ILSE) on lumbar strength and lumbar extension range in healthy young adults. Method : Ten healthy young adults (six males and four females) volunteered to carry out the LSE and ILSE program for two weeks. The subjects were randomly allocated to two groups: the LSE group (n=5) and the LSE plus ILSE group (n=5). The LSE consisted of 20 minutes of exercise related to lumbar stabilization, and the ILSE was composed of five minutes of isometric stabilization exercise with a specific device. Each group exercised three times per week for two weeks. Assessment tools were made using the subjects' isometric lumbar strength and lumbar extension range before and after the interventions. Results : Statistical analysis revealed significant differences in isometric lumbar strength and the lumbar extension range between before and after the interventions in each group (p<.05). Also, the lumbar extension range improved significantly in the LSE plus ILSE group compared to the LSE group; however, there was no statistically significant difference in the two groups' isometric lumbar strength (p>.05). Conclusion : The findings suggest that ILSE might be feasible in clinical settings by offering benefits for lumbar function. Future studies will be continued.

본 연구는 상지운동 동안에 복부에 적용된 압력이 요부와 복부의 근피로도에 미치는 영향을 알아보았다. 연구대상자는 성인 남자 5명이었다. 연구대상자가 10 repetitions maximun (RM) 무게의 아령을 이용하여 1분 동안 상지운동을 수행 시 0 mmHg, 저압(30 mmHg), 중압(70 mmHg), 고압(100 mmHg)의 외부 압력이 복부에 적용되었고, 복직근, 외복사근, 내복사근, 척추기립근에서 근전도 자료가 수집되었다. 주파수 분석을 통하여 적용된 압력에 따라 각각의 근육에서 초기 10초 구간과 말기 10초 구간의 중앙주파수로 피로지수를 측정하였다. 통계학적 분석방법은 반복측정된 이요인 분산분석 ($4{\times}4$)과 사후검정을 이용하였다. 그 결과 압력의 차이에 의한 주효과가 나타났으며, 사후검정결과 0 mmHg 압력에 비해 30 mmHg, 100 mmHg에서 각각 피로지수가 유의하게 낮았다(p=.04, p=.015). 본 연구의 결과를 통하여 복부에 적용된 압력 (30 mmHg, 100 mmHg)이 근육의 피로도를 감소시킬 수 있음이 나타났다. 요부벨트를 이용하여 작업을 수행할 때, 고유수용성 감각 입력을 증가시키고 재손상을 방지하는 목적이외에도 근피로도를 감소시킬 수 있다는 가능성을 알 수 있었다.

본 연구의 목적은 스포츠 마사지와 발반사 마사지가 요통감소 미치는 영향을 규명하기 위해 S시에 소재하고 있는 요통 전문 클리닉 2곳에 등록한 환자 30명을 대상으로 실시하였다. 스포츠 마사지그룹(15명)과 발반사 마사지그룹(15명)은 각 각 전담지도자의 관찰아래 12주동안 주3회, 1일 60분씩 실시하여 다음과 같은 결과를 나타내었다. 1. 요부 통증에 관한 조사 결과 스포츠 마사지그룹은 86.7%, 발반사 마사지 그룹은 66.7%가 요부통증이 개선된 것으로 나타났다. 이러한 결과로 볼 때 요부통증의 개선에는 스포츠 마사지와 발반사 마사지 모두 효과가 있는 것으로 나타났으며 특히 스포츠 마사지의 효과가 발반사 마사지보다 약간 높은 것으로 나타났다. 2. 자세 변화에 관한 조사 결과 스포츠 마사지그룹은 53.3%, 발반사 마사지 그룹은 6.7%가 자세가 개선된 것으로 나타났다. 이러한 결과로 볼 때 자세 변화의 개선에는 스포츠 마사지와 발반사 마사지 모두 효과가 있는 것으로 나타났지만 스포츠 마사지의 효과가 발반사 마사지 보다 매우 높은 것으로 나타났다.

Overweight and abdominal obesity caused by sedentary lifestyle may induce deconditioned and atrophied extensor musculature of the lumbar spine and be a potential risk factor for low back pain (LBP). Therefore, this study was conducted to evaluate the validity of high intensity circuit training (HICT) on weight loss and subsequent alleviation of spine curvature (SC) and visual analog scale (VAS) among middle aged men with abdominal obesity. The training program (1 exercise session for 30 minutes, three times a week for 12 weeks) consisted of 12 different functional exercises based on core strengthening multiple joint circuit training. Portions of the obesity index related to body composition were positively changed, which improved the angles of thoracic kyposis and lumbar lordosis, which appeared to effectively reduce lower back pain. Taken together, HICT specifically designed for LBP effectively decreased obesity related body composition and was superior to other treatments for decreasing aggravation of the spine curvature and LBP caused by abdominal obesity; however, weight loss should be the primary treatment target for LBP patients.

The purpose of this study lies in examining how sling lumbar stabilization exercise affects static standing balance of adolescent idiopathic scoliosis patients. The subjects were forty patients who were diagnosed with idiopathic scoliosis. They were randomly assigned either to a experimental group (n=20) that received sling lmubar stabilization exercise program or to a control group (n=20) that received only education. Data were obtained for each patient from total sway path and sway velocity in standing on both feet with eyes closed and standing on both feet with eyes open were measured, using balance performance monitor. All variables were measured at pre- and post-exercise. There were significantly differences between the both groups for all variables at post-exercise (p<.05). The experimental group showed a significantly decreases in all variables at pre- and post-exercise (p<.05). But the control group showed a no significantly differences. These results revealed that sling lumbar stabilization exercise improved static standing balance, by reducing COP(center of pressure) sway path and sway velocity of idiopathic scoliosis patients, and it is expected that sling lumbar stabilization exercise will be used as balance enhancement exercise intervention for the treatment of adolescent idiopathic scoliosis patients.

This study is to identify the effects of pilates mat exercise on the body composition, lumbar muscle strength, low back pain and pregnancy stress in pregnant women. In order to carry out this study, nineteen pregnant women were divided into two groups: pilates mat exercise group (n=11) and control group (n=8). EXE group performed pilates mat exercise for 60 min per day, 2days/week for 12 weeks. Our results showed that there was no significant changes in total body water, body fat mass, BMI, body fat percent, and BMR, but the EXE group showed significant increase in skeletal muscle mass. Furthermore, EXE group was significantly increased in hip extension and lumbar extension ROM. Analysis of low back pain and pregnancy stress level showed no significant difference between group. In conclusion, our study suggest that pilates mat exercise can be safely applied to pregnant women by increasing the muscle mass of pregnant women and by showing a positive effect on the lumbar muscle strength.
