    (S-VYASA, 2018-05) KRISHNA
    Objective: To investigate the yoga based relaxation technique facilitate on the attention span of back pain patient. Design: Two groups pre-post test design vi Participants: Twenty-two individual pre diagnosed with back pain aged between 30-50 years (group mean, SD; 36±5.26 years, 22 male) were randomized into two groups i.e., yoga (n=11) and control (n=11). The yoga group was given Yoga Based Relaxation Technique (YBRT) one hour daily for 24 days at Gurgoan region, Haryana whereas control group maintained their normal routine. The ethics committee of the University had approved the study which had been registered later in the Clinical Trails Registry of India (CTRI/2018/01/011243). Outcomes: Sustained Attention to Response Task (SART) and Oswestry Low Back Pain Disability Questionnaire (OLBPDQ) were measured on day 1 and day 25. Result The paired sample t-test was showed that there was a significant change from pre to post in pain intensity (p<0.001) and sustained attention (p<0.001) in yoga group compared to control group. Conclusion: The results showed that the yoga based relaxation technique significantly reduced pain and improved sustained attention. This suggests that yoga may reduce pain sensation to the cortical area of the brain which are involved in attention, and facilitate information processing speed after a brief intervention of yoga.
