Fifteen sessions of EMG biofeedback training to low back musculature were completed by a patient with chronic low back pain during a five-week interval. The training was provided while standing, during trunk movements, and for movement patterns which exacerbated pain. Specific joint ranges of motion and pain ratings were recorded at each session. A minitrainer worn by the patient in his occupational setting was used to reinforce training. Joint ranges of motion increased over time while variability in integrated EMG was reduced. Subjective pain ratings declined after 11 of 17 sessions and remained "very low" throughout a follow-up period. The patient substantially decreased intake of prescription drugs. Fifteen weeks after the first treatment session, the patient was still able to minimize variability in EMG activity for specific body positioning.
一名慢性下背痛患者在五周的时间里完成了针对下背部肌肉组织的15次肌电图生物反馈训练。训练在站立时、躯干运动期间以及疼痛加剧的运动模式下进行。每次训练都记录了特定的关节活动范围和疼痛评分。患者在工作环境中佩戴的小型训练器用于强化训练。随着时间的推移，关节活动范围增加，而肌电图积分的变异性降低。在17次训练中的11次后，主观疼痛评分下降，并且在整个随访期间一直保持“非常低”。患者大幅减少了处方药的摄入量。在第一次治疗 session 后的15周，患者仍然能够将特定身体姿势下肌电图活动的变异性降至最低。
