Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The main purpose of the study is to find the effects of Pilates exercises and neural mobilization techniques on pain, flexibility and quality of life in sciatica patients. It will be a randomized controlled trial in which participants selected through non probability convenience sampling, to evaluate the effect of 6-week Pilates exercises versus neural dynamic mobilization techniques on pain, flexibility and quality of life in sciatica patients. Patients aged range from 18 to 65 years. The data will be collected from Service Hospital Lahore. Patients will have diagnosed with sciatica low back pain radiating down hip to knee, numbness, paresthesia and with positive SLR will include in this study whereas patients with considerable musculoskeletal deformity, previous hip, knee and ankle surgery and foot ulceration will be excluded from study .The participants will be randomly allocated to one of the two groups. Group A will perform Pilates mats exercises 30 minutes, two times a week and the Group B will perform neural dynamic mobilization for 15 minutes, two times a week, for 6-weeks respectively. Pain will be assessed by using BPFS, flexibility with Canadian sit to reach test and QOL with SF-36 questionnaire. SPSS software will be used for data entry and analysis.
