  7. “[progressive aerobic training] and [progressive resistance training] decreased pain intensity in individuals with CNSLBP although neither mode was superior.” “A more prudent approach however, would be to prescribe a combination of aerobic and resistance exercise training for CNSLBP, which might prove more beneficial through a broader range of physical and psychological adaptations than possible with either modality in isolation.”

  10. Stretching, Inflammation and Fascia “In vivo tissue stretch mitigated the inflammation-induced changes leading to restored stride length and intrastep distance, decreased mechanical sensitivity of the back and reduced macrophage expression in the nonspecialized connective tissues of the low back.” “This tissue stretch research is relevant to body- based treatments such as yoga…” From: Stretching of the back improves gait, mechanical sensitivity and connective tissue inflammation in a rodent model, Corey SM, Vizzard MA, Bouffard NA, Badger GJ, Langevin HM, PLoS One, 7(1):e29831, 2012. https://journals.plos.org/plosone/article/file?id=10.1371/journal.pone.0029831&type=printable

  24. Mediators of Yoga for cLBP “Both yoga and stretching were superior to self -care, and our mediator analyses suggest that increased participation in back exercise and self- efficacy was responsible for most of these benefits. However, these are both complex interventions and qualitative data suggesting that relaxation and increased awareness may have contributed to the benefits of yoga…” http://downloads.hindawi.com/journals/ecam/2013/130818.pdf
