To compare the effects of Thoracic Flexibility Exercise (TFE) with those of Lumbar Stabilization Exercise (LSE) in patients with chronic low back pain. Participants were randomly assigned to TFE (n=11) or LSE (n=11) groups. Chronic low back pain patients in both groups underwent standard physiotherapy for 35 minutes per session. Additionally, TFE and LSE exercises were performed 3 times per week for 4 weeks. The visual analog scale, autonomic nerve activity, and standard deviation normal to normal were measured after 4 weeks of training. After 4 weeks of training, the visual analog scale, autonomic nerve activity, and standard deviation normal to normal improved significantly in both groups after intervention compared to the baseline (p<0.05). Further, the visual analog scale, autonomic nerve activity, and standard deviation normal to normal improved more significantly in the TFE group than in the LSE group (p<0.05). This study demonstrates that TFE and LSE are both beneficial for improving pain and heart rate variability. However, TFE was superior to SLE with respect to improving the visual analog scale, autonomic nerve activity, and standard deviation normal to normal.
