Dissertation note: Thesis (M.Sc.) - Cairo University - Physical Therapy - Department of Basic Science Summary: Background: Vojta is a neurophysiological method used to obtain reflex responses in muscles following stimulation of particular activation zones Objective: This study was designed to determine the effect of Vojta method on balance and quality of life in chronic non-specific low back pain patients Method: Forty patients (19 males and 21 females), group (A) Their mean ± SD age, weight, height and BMI were (26.45 ± 4.75) years, (67.15 ± 7.72) kg, (171.1 ± 8.09) cm and (22.94 ± 1.92) kg/m² respectively. Group(B) Their mean ± SD age, weight, height and BMI were 26.05 ± 4.6 years, 68.85 ± 8 kg, 172.75 ± 7.45 cm and 23.04 ± 1.76 kg/m² respectively complaining of chronic non -specific low back pain were recruited in the study and randomly assigned into two equal groups. Both groups received twelve sessions for four weeks. Group "A" received conventional treatment of back pain which consisted of; Transcutaneous Electrical Nerve Stimulation and hot packs, Group "B" received conventional treatment of back pain in addition to Vojta method. Results: Within group comparison showed significant decrease in the post-treatment scores overall stability index (OASI), anteroposterior stability index (APSI), mediolateral stability index (MLSI), limit of stability Test (LOS) and Oswestry Low Back Pain Disability index (ODI) in group A and B as compared to pre-treatment scores (p > 0.001). For between groups comparison there were no significant difference in between groups pre-treatment (p > 0.05). Comparison between post-treatment scores of both groups revealed a significant decrease in OASI, APSI, MLSI, LOS time and ODI and a significant increase in LOS of group B compared with that of group A (p < 0.01)
