1

Home-based biomechanical intervention (HBBI) showed superior pain reduction and functional improvement for chronic low back pain patients.
2

HBBI led to significantly higher patient compliance compared to traditional physical therapy (TPT).
3

The AposHealth device, used in HBBI, aims to off-load and destabilize the joint through neuromuscular training.
4

Compliance with the HBBI program was due to personalized treatment and follow-up support strategies.

CLBP affects approximately 15% of adults worldwide and may benefit from noninvasive treatments like HBBI.
