Objective
Establish the utility of acupressure for chronic low back pain (CLBP). Design A systematic review of English articles using PubMed and Embase was conducted from 01/2004-01/2020. Search terms included: acupressure and chronic pain or low back pain. Articles included were randomized control trials evaluating acupressure in adult patients with CLBP. Results 150 studies met initial criteria; 6 were included (n = 468). The average total treatment length was 4 weeks. The main treatment outcomes were changes in pain, disability, and sleep. All studies found a clinically significant reduction (, ≥30% decrease) in pain for the treatment groups. All studies found a clinically significant and/or statistically significant improvement in disability in at least one of the treatment groups. All studies found a statistically significant improvement in sleep. No study found significant adverse events. Conclusion Acupressure is a feasible, effective, safe, low cost nonpharmacologic method to treat CLBP. |
