Pulsed electromagnetic field therapy effectiveness in low back pain: A systematic review of randomized controlled trials

Low back pain is a worldwide prevalent musculoskeletal condition in the general population. In this sense, the pulsed electromagnetic fields (PEMF) therapy has shown significant clinical benefits in several musculoskeletal conditions. This study was conducted to assess the effectiveness of the PEMF therapy in reducing pain and clinical symptomatology in patients with low back pathological…

Effect of pulsed electromagnetic field on nonspecific low back pain patients: a randomized controlled trial

Further research on pulsed electromagnetic field (PEMF) effects on the different conditions of low back pain was warranted due to lack of studies in this area. To investigate the effects of pulsed electromagnetic field therapy with 50 Hz frequency, with low intensity of 20 Gauss compared to conventional non-invasive treatment modalities in patients with chronic…

Low-Level Laser Therapy for Treating Low Back Pain: 12-Month Follow-Up

Low back pain is the leading cause of disability, with an estimated 632 million persons worldwide suffering and producing societal costs exceeding $100 billion annually in the United States. The use of low-level lasers (LLLT) has demonstrated beneficial effects for treating a range of painful musculoskeletal conditions, including low back pain. The Food and Drug…
