Detailed Description
Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.
Myofascial release technique is thought to be effective in patients with chronic low back pain. Therefore, when the literature is examined, it has been observed that the myofascial release technique has studies on pain, range of motion, functionality, muscle stiffness and shortness.
This study will be performed on patients with a total of 42 low back pain. The cases will be divided into 2 groups of 21 people by simple random sampling.
Group 1 (control) will be used with sham diaphragm and iliopsoas muscle myofascial release technique and traditional physiotherapy method.
The second group (experiment) will apply the diaphragm and the myofascial release technique of the iliopsoas muscle and the traditional physiotherapy method.
Patients will be treated for 4 weeks. Traditional physiotherapy method will be applied a total of 20 sessions 5 days a week. A total of 12 sessions will be performed, with the myofascial release technique of the diaphragm and iliopsoas muscle applied 3 days a week.
The study focuses on the analysis of the following variables:
Pain : Numerical Pain Scale
Joint Range of Motion: Goniometer
Flexibility: Tape Measure
Pulmonary Function Test: Spirometer
Anxiety and Depression: Beck Depression inventory
Kinesiophobia: Tampa Kinesiophobia Scale
Disability: Roland-Morris Disability Questionnaire
The results of these pre-intervention and post-intervention variables will be compared between the two groups .

Study Groups
Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.
Diaphragmatic and İliopsoas Myofascial Release Techniques
Subjects in this arm will receive different myofascial release techniques aimed to relaxation the myofascial tension of the diaphragmatic and iliopsoas muscles.
Experimental: Diaphragmatic and İliopsoas Myofascial Release Techniques
Subjects in this arm will receive different myofascial release techniques aimed to relaxation the myofascial tension of the diaphragmatic and iliopsoas muscles.
Sham Myofascial Release Techniques
Subjects in this arm will receive the same manual techniques of the diaphragmatic and iliopsoas myofascial release group, but without the myofascial stimulus.
Sham Comparator: Sham Myofascial Release Techniques
Subjects in this arm will receive the same manual techniques of the diaphragmatic and iliopsoas myofascial release group, but without the myofascial stimulus.
