Modifying lumbar flexion pain thresholds in patients with chronic low back pain through visual-proprioceptive manipulation with virtual reality: a cross-sectional study

Manipulating visual-proprioceptive feedback through VR significantly influenced pain thresholds during lumbar flexion in cLBP patients. The understated condition (F-) extended pain-free movement, delaying pain onset. Furthermore, pain intensity and interference modulated susceptibility to visual feedback manipulation. These findings enhance our understanding of how visual-proprioceptive feedback influences pain perception and movement patterns in cLBP. They suggest new avenues for pain assessment, therapeutic interventions, and clinical strategies, particularly for individuals with high pain levels, interference, kinesiophobia, and catastrophizing. TRIAL REGISTRATION : This study was retrospectively registered in the ClinicalTrials.gov with identifier NCT06750887.

Abstract

Manipulating visual-proprioceptive feedback through VR significantly influenced pain thresholds during lumbar flexion in cLBP patients. The understated condition (F-) extended pain-free movement, delaying pain onset. Furthermore, pain intensity and interference modulated susceptibility to visual feedback manipulation. These findings enhance our understanding of how visual-proprioceptive feedback influences pain perception and movement patterns in cLBP. They suggest new avenues for pain assessment, therapeutic interventions, and clinical strategies, particularly for individuals with high pain levels, interference, kinesiophobia, and catastrophizing. TRIAL REGISTRATION : This study was retrospectively registered in the ClinicalTrials.gov with identifier NCT06750887.
