Brief summary (from the registry)
The primary purpose of this study is to investigate the effects of deep breathing pattern on dynamic balance in patients with chronic mechanical low back pain versus healthy controls. Secondary to compare between dynamic balance control during deep versus regular breathing patterns in patients with chronic mechanical low back pain and healthy controls. Further, to detect whether pain intensity differs during balance testing applying either deep or regular breathing in patients with chronic mechanical low back pain.
