Brief Summary

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

This study is a randomized controlled trial and the purpose of this study is to determine the effects of Static Stretching Versus Post Facilitation Stretch of Iliopsoas combined with core stability exercises in Non-Specific Low Back Pain"

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

The purpose of this study is to determine the effects of Static Stretching Versus Post Facilitation Stretch of Iliopsoas on Pain, physical function, lumbar ROM and Hip ROM in patients Non-Specific Low Back Pain" adults (age : 30-50 years )

1. Numeric pain rating scale
2. Goniometer
3. Inclinometer
4. Oswestry Disability Questionairre Data will be collected before and after the intervention protocol for each participant.

Data collection procedure: Participants of interest would be approached and explained about the research. Informed written consent will be taken. Pre and post intervention scores will be recorded.

Study Groups

Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.

Static Stretching Group

Core stabilization exercises along with Static Stretching of Iliopsoas (Hold for 7-8s x 10 reps) Week 1 Lifting the leg while lying in a prone position with the knee bent Week 2 Lifting the leg in a prone position with a straight knee Week 3 Stretch in the modified Thomas test position Week 4 Modified launch stretch

Group Type EXPERIMENTAL

Core stability exercises

Intervention Type PROCEDURE

Core stability Exercises will include:

PLANK SIDE PLANK BIRD DOG MS GILL CURLUP PLANK + LEG RAISES SIDE PLANK + LEG RAISES PLANK + WALKS SIDE TO SIDE SIDE PLANK + TWIST BIRD DOG

Static Stretching of Iliopsoas

Intervention Type PROCEDURE

Static Stretching of Iliopsoas (Hold for 7-8s x 10 reps) Week 1 Lifting the leg while lying in a prone position with the knee bent Week 2 Lifting the leg in a prone position with a straight knee Week 3 Stretch in the modified Thomas test position Week 4 Modified launch stretch

PFS Group

Core stabilization exercises along with Post Facilitation Stretch of Iliopsoas (5-10s x 10 reps) Patient's position supine at the edge of the table, non-effected hip and knee in flexion, experimental thigh and leg hang on the edge of table. Extend the hip of the opposite thigh up to the barrier. After that, the patient flexes the hip against maximal resistance (isometric) and breathes in for 5-10 seconds. Tell the patient "Relax", whereas the therapist applies a rapid stretch to a new barrier and is held for 10 seconds.

Group Type EXPERIMENTAL

Core stability exercises

Intervention Type PROCEDURE

Core stability Exercises will include:

PLANK SIDE PLANK BIRD DOG MS GILL CURLUP PLANK + LEG RAISES SIDE PLANK + LEG RAISES PLANK + WALKS SIDE TO SIDE SIDE PLANK + TWIST BIRD DOG

Post Facilitation Stretch of Iliopsoas

Intervention Type PROCEDURE

Post Facilitation Stretch of Iliopsoas (5-10s x 10 reps) Patient's position supine at the edge of the table, non-effected hip and knee in flexion, experimental thigh and leg hang on the edge of table. Extend the hip of the opposite thigh up to the barrier. After that, the patient flexes the hip against maximal resistance (isometric) and breathes in for 5-10 seconds. Tell the patient "Relax", whereas the therapist applies a rapid stretch to a new barrier and is held for 10 seconds.
