Objective To observe the clinical effect of Long's chiropractic technique combined with core strength training on patients with chronic non-specific low back pain (CNLBP). Methods A total of 120 CNBLP patients who received treatment from June 2015 to December 2017 were selected as the research objects. The patients were randomly divided into control group, Long's chiropractic group, core strength training group and joint training group, with 30 cases in each group. The control group only used conventional massage treatment. Long's chiropractic group was treated with Long's chiropractic technique on the basis of the control group. The core strength training group was treated with core strength training on the basis of the control group. On the basis of the control group, the combined training group used Long's chiropractic techniques and core muscle strength training for treatment. The visual analogue scale (VAS), Oswestry dysfunction index (ODI) and range of motion of each joint of the spine were evaluated before treatment and 1 month after treatment. Results After treatment, the four groups of VAS, ODI, flexion, extension, left and right flexion of the spine were significantly improved, and the differences were statistically significant (P <0.05). After treatment, the VAS and ODI of the Long's chiropractic group and the combined training group were significantly lower than those of the control group, and the differences were statistically significant (P <0.05). VAS and ODI in the combined training group were lower than those in the core strength training group, and the differences were statistically significant (P <0.05). There was no statistically significant difference in the flexion mobility between the groups after treatment (P >0.05). After treatment, post-extension range and right-side flexion range of the core strength training group and the joint training group were greater than those of the control group, and the differences were statistically significant (P <0.05). The joint training group's post-extension range and right-side flexion range were greater than those of the core strength training group and the Long's chiropractic group, and the differences were statistically significant (P <0.05). After treatment, the left flexion range of the core strength training group was greater than that of the Long's chiropractic group, and the difference was statistically significant (P <0.05). Conclusion Core strength training combined with Long's chiropractic therapy can further reduce the pain of CNLBP patients, improve their lumbar spine function, and enhance the range of motion of joint extension and left and right flexion. It is worthy of clinical promotion and application. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
