In two experiments we examined the effectiveness of ideokinetic imagery and flexibility combined with abdominal strength training as methods for improving the spinal angles of lordosis and kyphosis and reducing low back pain. Ideokinetic imagery is a postural development technique that involves using movement images to gain subcortical control over the spinal musculature. Experiment 1 investigated the effectiveness of these treatments for males with a previous history of low back pain. Findings indicated that only ideokinetic imagery had a positive effect on the spinal column and low back pain. Experiment 2 extended these findings by investigating males and females using a noninvasive video analysis technique to record changes in spinal angles. This study further supports the effectiveness of ideokinetic imagery as a postural development technique in males with acute spinal angles. In these subjects spinal angles improved significantly, and the subjects reported complete cessation of low back pain. This research supports the use of ideokinetic imagery as an inexpensive and noninvasive technique to improve poor posture and reduce low back pain.
在两项实验中，我们研究了动念动作想象与灵活性训练相结合，并辅以腹部力量训练，作为改善脊柱前凸和后凸角度以及减轻下背痛的方法的有效性。动念动作想象是一种姿势发展技术，它涉及利用运动图像来获得对脊髓肌肉组织的皮层下控制。实验1研究了这些治疗方法对有下背痛病史男性的有效性。研究结果表明，只有动念动作想象对脊柱和下背痛有积极影响。实验2通过使用非侵入性视频分析技术记录脊柱角度的变化，对男性和女性进行研究，扩展了这些发现。这项研究进一步支持了动念动作想象作为一种姿势发展技术对脊柱角度异常男性的有效性。在这些受试者中，脊柱角度显著改善，并且受试者报告下背痛完全消失。这项研究支持将动念动作想象作为一种廉价且非侵入性的技术来改善不良姿势并减轻下背痛。
