Research supports the effectiveness of a kinesiology-based method to treat lower back pain, say study authors.
Low back pain is the leading cause of late-life disability, affecting nearly 700 million globally. Those suffering from low back pain can now find relief through the scientifically supported Canali Postural Method (CPM) in the prevention of postural dysfunctions, and in post-rehabilitation functional recovery aimed at optimizing physical efficiency.
Therapists evaluated and compared the effects of applying two kinesiological approaches; a generic exercise program and one based on CPM. They found that the CPM group experienced significantly greater pain relief both immediately after the intervention (4 weeks) and at the 3-month follow-up. Disability perception decreased in both groups, with the CPM group showing a greater improvement at follow-up.
In addition to pain reduction, participants showed measurable improvements in postural alignment, with a noticeable rebalancing of load distribution and increased symmetry in the postural parameters analyzed.
Antonio Giordano said, "The scientific validation of innovative methods is essential. The Canali Postural Method proves to be a promising tool to address a significant social and economic issue such as chronic low back pain."
"The research activity conducted was aimed at experimenting with solutions to achieve and maintain optimal psychophysical well-being and, in this specific case, to provide effective answers to socially and economically significant problems such as chronic low back pain," said Saverio Sabina, lead author of the study and researcher at CNR.
"In rehabilitation, we are constantly seeking innovative strategies and programs to address spinal and general musculoskeletal problems. The Canali Method proves to be a technique capable of supporting pain resolution and functional recovery in all conditions related to overload and postural imbalance," said Patrizia Maiorano, physiatrist.

Too bad they don’t describe what The Canali Postural Method is.
Leave the gun.
Take the Canali.
bttt
Later.
I like the cannoli repose method.
Eat comfort food then lie down and don’t move.
In watching Italian videos on it, it seems to be very heavy on progressive stomach / core exercises.

Like crunches?

Canali? As in, “Leave the gun; take the Canalis?”
Agreed. I looked for some instructions, but they’re behind paywalls. As someone with chronic lower back issues, I could use some relief, and yes, I fully accept that my lower back issues are due to piss poor abdominal strength. I have a very hard time doing core exercises, and they tend to cause irritation of my lower back conditions when attempted.

I read the report looking for some possible help but noticed I was in the exclusionary category which apparently have reasons for low back pain so there went any hope.
I get realigned by a chiropractor about once a month. Not the bend twist and snap chiropractor but a real one using measured procedures while laying face down on a drop table. Yoga stretches daily also help and a lot of walking.
Based on the report the excluded list are those with real lower back problems if you can’t do gymnastics. If you can do gymnastics you don’t have lower back problems in my opinion.
It was a bit tricky, but I managed to find a copy of the procedure here: https://www.mdpi.com/2227-9032/13/8/869
Also some good examples here - https://www.stabhoch.com/epvc/canali_gymnastics.pdf
I already do some stuff like this on my Total Gym.
