Traction

Moderate-quality evidence of little or no impact on pain intensity compared with sham treatment [1][2]

Manual Therapy

  • Not superior to other interventions for improving pain and function
  • High-quality statistically significant evidence for small improvements in pain at 1 month and 6 months and function at 1 month compared with other active interventions. No long-term effect on function. Effects not clinically relevant.
  • Very-low-quality evidence that not more effective than other inert/sham interventions

[3][4][5]

Acupuncture

  • Low-quality evidence of better immediate (0-7 days) and short-term (1wk - 3mths) pain relief and functional improvement than sham or no treatment, or oral analgesics: 7- to 24-point immediate improvement in pain on 0- to 100-point scale
  • Moderate-quality evidence of no long-term benefit
  • May be a useful adjunct to other therapies

[6][7][8]

Massage

  • Very-low- to low-quality evidence of benefit: -0.6 to -0.94 reduction in 0 to10 point pain scale
  • Slightly better short-term pain relief and function than sham therapy, waiting list or no treatment
  • Slightly better short-term pain relief than manipulation, mobilisation, acupuncture, traction, relaxation, physiotherapy, exercises, TENS or self-care education
  • AE: Increased pain intensity in 1.5-25%

[9][10]

Behavioural Therapy

  • Moderate-quality evidence that more effective than usual care for short-term pain relief
  • Moderate-quality evidence that no intermediate- or long-term effect on pain or function[11][12]

Back School

  • Education and exercise, therapeutic programme, often for groups. Started in 1969 with the Swedish Back School
  • Only very-low quality evidence available. Uncertain if effective: no difference or trivial effect in favour of Back School[13]

Exercises

  • Mixed statements: low- to high-quality evidence: slightly effective at improving short-, intermediate- and long-term pain and function
  • Individually designed strengthening or stabilising programs appear to be effective in healthcare settings

[14][15][16]

Physical Activity

  • Low-quality evidence that may improve pain severity and physical function, and quality of life in short-, medium- and long-term
  • Walking as good as other forms of physical activity
  • Low-quality evidence that exercise is better than hands-on therapy for reducing pain and improving function

[17][18][19]

Yoga

Low- to moderate-quality evidence: may provide small to moderate improvements in function at 3 and 6 months compared to non-exercise controls, and may also be slightly more effective for pain at 3 and 6 months [20]

Pilates

Low- to moderate-quality evidence: more effective than minimal intervention for pain and disability short- and intermediate-term; possibly slightly superior to other exercises at improving pain and disability at intermediate-term follow-up (3-12 months)[21][17]

Cognitive Functional Therapy

Mindfulness

  • Possibly better improvements in short-term pain and function compared with usual care or education
  • No differences between outcomes for mindfulness versus CBT
