AB - Objectives :The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of balneotherapy on low back pain. Methods :50 low back pain patients participated in this study. Each participant took 1 session of balneotherapy which consisted of 15 minutes of high pressure underwater shower(32~36 ℃) and another 15 minutes of whole body bathing(32~40 ℃). VAS(visual analogue scale) and pain threshold were measured before and after the whole session. Then the results were analysed. Results :1. The average of VAS significantly decreased by 2.036±1.475: 4.800±2.068 before treatment to 2.764±1.858 after treatment(p<0.001)(Table Ⅳ). 2. The average of pain threshold significantly increased by 1.966±3.741 lbf: 11.108±4.735 lbf before treatment to 13.074±5.313 lbf after treatment (p<0.05)(Table Ⅳ). Conclusions :These results suggest that balneotherapy may have clinical effects on lumbar pain and also imply that it could be an alternative and complementary treatment to other musculoskeletal diseases. Further studies are needed to figure out the effects of balneotherapy on various diseases such as other musculoskeletal diseases.
