The Effectiveness of Use an Energy Protector Aids for Improving the Lower Back Pain, Sports and Autonomic Nerve

The purpose of this study is to explore the impact of Protective gear irradiated by infrared rays intervention on back pain, motor protection and autonomic nerves.

Study Overview

Detailed Description

Before and after the experimental control study design, each case, using the Chinese version of the simple pain scale and autonomic nerve measurement and exercise protection knowledge as a research tool, before and after the test (3 months after using the protective gear), collected Lower back pain level: changes in pain intensity and pain effects, and changes in autonomic and motor protection knowledge before and after testing. The research data uses SPSS for Windows 25.0 software package English version for data processing and analysis. The main statistics are Independent t test, Pair samples t test, Chi-square test and Odds ratio etc. It is expected that in the future, patients will be able to provide a safe and effective pain care and improve the quality of life, thereby reducing the recurrence rate of back pain and reducing the social cost of medical treatment
