The purpose of this study is to determine the effects of 448 kHz thermal stimulation on autonomic responses in individuals with low back pain or previous low back pain.
Efficacy
For the autonomic nervous system evaluation, a small heart rate monitor My Beat was attached to the chest during the above three interventions, and the heart rate variability obtained during the interventions was analyzed by RRI Analyzer to determine the Low Frequency/High Frequency and High Frequency changes over time are recorded.

The irradiation range for 448 kHz thermal stimulation was from the fourth thoracic spinous process to 5 cm on either side of the twelfth thoracic spinous process, where many sympathetic ganglia that run parallel to the spine and are involved in stress responses are located. The irradiation duration is 15 minutes. The irradiation intensity is adjusted on a score of 5 to 7 using an 11-point analog scale on which subjects self-report heat sensation according to the safety procedures recommended by Indaba.
When using hot packs, the hot packs should not be applied directly to the skin, but should be heated indirectly by using towels or other means according to the manufacturer's instructions to prevent burns or other skin damage.
The range of intervention and duration of hot packs and pseudothermal stimulation should also be the same.
