    Abstract: Background  In recent years,the incidence of non-specific low back pain has been increasing. The duration of conventional treatment is short,and the symptoms tend to rebound,which has a great impact on the body and mind of patients. Objective  To investigate the effectiveness of backward walking based on anti-gravity treadmill training system combined with conventional low back core training on patients with non-specific low back pain. Methods  A total of 40 patients with non-specific low back pain admitted to the rehabilitation department of Zhongshan Hospital,Fudan University from July to December 2022 were divided into the experimental group (20 cases) and control group (20 cases) according to the random number table method. The control group received conventional low back core training,and the experimental group received backward walking based on anti-gravity treadmill training system on the basis of the control group. The oswestry disability index (ODI),visual analogue scale(VAS) and back pain classification scale(BPS) of the 2 groups were evaluated before and 4 weeks after treatment,respectively. Results  There was no significant difference in ODI,VAS and BPS scores between the two groups before treatment (P>0.05); after 4 weeks of treatment,ODI,VAS and BPS scores of the 2 groups were decreased,and ODI,VAS and BPS scores of the experimental group were significantly lower than those of the control group(P<0.05); the difference in the change of each score before and after treatment between the two groups was statistically significant (P<0.05). Conclusion  The backward walking based on anti-gravity treadmill training system is effective in improving the pain level and overall status of the low back in patients with non-specific low back pain,which is worthy of clinical promotion.
