“…This seems to relate to the therapeutic effect. Therefore, posture control is very important 13 ) . In other words, as in our results, when physical therapy is performed in the static supine position to eliminate subjects’ pain, they may in fact feel pain due to a firm environment or long therapeutic period.…”

“…The subjects had no pain in the measured body parts that could affect this study. The pain scores were evaluated using the VAS, FPRS, and IPT before entering the static supine position, at 1, 5, 10, and 15 min, and in total for the head, shoulder, right and left arm, low back, pelvic girdle, and right and left leg 13 , 14 ) .

[Purpose] This study was performed to investigate the difference in body pressure–related sensory changes between the floor and mattress in a static supine position for physiotherapy research. [Subjects and Methods] To analyze body pressure, the Body Pressure Measurement System was used. Body pressure sensors were attached to mattresses and the floor beneath the subjects. The level of pain was evaluated using pain score tools before the static supine position was adopted, at 1, 5, 10, and 15 min, and in total for specific body points. [Results] In analysis of digitized images, there was no significant difference observed between floor and mattress body pressure values at the start position. However, the head pressure intensity was significantly higher than that of the other body parts. In analysis of pain scores, all body part pain scores except those for both legs were significantly higher for the floor than for the mattress. Furthermore, the pain scores of the floor group were significantly increased at minute 1 compared with those of the mattress group. [Conclusion] These results suggest that properties that change in a time-dependent manner and postural changes need to be carefully considered when applying physical therapy.
