Brief Summary

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

The iliolumbar ligament, one of the sacroiliac ligaments, has been identified in recent research as a contributor to low back pain when tight. During pregnancy, hormonal changes and postural changes can cause this ligament to tighten, leading to pain. Releasing the iliolumbar ligament can reduce low back pain and restore normal mechanical function.

Detailed Description

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

Group A (Control group) It will be consisted of postnatal women and will be treated by hot packs for 20 minutes three times per week for 8 weeks.

Group B (study group) the participant will treated by hot packs for 20 min in additional to pumping technique for iliolumbar ligament release for 30 min. 3 times per week for 8 weeks.
