Abstract Background: Non-specific low back pain (NSLBP) is a common musculoskeletal condition impacting a large segment of the adult population, frequently resulting in functional constraints and diminished quality of life. Core stability exercises (CSE) and Russian electrical stimulation (RES) have been researched separately as treatments for NSLBP. Nonetheless, the joint impacts on alleviating pain, activating muscles, and enhancing function are still not well-studied Methods: An extensive literature review exploring the involvement of CSE and RES in the management of NSLBP was performed. The physiological processes that support these interventions were examined, and clinical research contrasting their efficacy was assessed. The possible benefits of combining CSE and RES in rehabilitation programs were also covered Results: CSE has demonstrated improvements in neuromuscular control, enhanced postural stability, and decreased pain levels in NSLBP patients by fortifying deep core muscles. RES utilizes high-frequency electrical stimulation to promote muscle contraction, increase motor unit recruitment, and boost circulation, aiding in muscle re-education and alleviating pain. Research indicates that integrating CSE and RES could enhance functional recovery by concurrently boosting muscle endurance, proprioception, and pain management. Nevertheless, discrepancies in research methods and differences in intervention parameters create difficulties in arriving at conclusive findings Conclusion: CSE and RES both present encouraging advantages for NSLBP rehabilitation, with possible synergistic effects when applied together. Although the results are promising, additional high-quality randomized controlled trials are needed to create standardized protocols and enhance their clinical use.Focusing on patient compliance, safety aspects, and sustained effectiveness will be essential in enhancing rehabilitation approaches | ||||
