The American Pain Society and American College of Physicians have also jointly stated that there is good evidence for the effectiveness of exercise in reducing chronic low back pain.Specific types of exercise that have been shown to be effective in persons with low back pain include training of the deep and superficial paraspinal muscles as well as unweighted or suspended exercise.The only systematic review of the effects of unweighted movement on persons with chronic low back pain concluded that there was consistent and strong evidence to support unweighted exercise to decrease pain and improve function.Exercise targeting specific lumbar paraspinal muscles has been shown to substantially reduce pain and restore function.A referral to a physical therapist is warranted in most, if not all, cases of low back pain to allow for proper comprehensive management, which may include exercise as well as other safe and effective interventions.
