Summary

This study is to determine the effectiveness of Neural mobilization(NM) technique compared with lumbar stabilization exercise (LSE) and Radial Extracorporeal Shock Wave Therapy (rESWT) in the physical therapy management of chronic low back pain (CLBP) with radiculopathy. Subjects will be randomly assigned into two groups. Group A (NM, LSE and rESWT) and Group B (LSE and rESWT).

Conditions

  • Low Back Pain

Interventions

OTHER

Exercise, manual therapy

Participants were randomly assigned into treatment (n=15) or control group (n=15). Participants in each group received 12 treatment sessions of 45 minutes each, 2 days a week for 6 consecutive weeks. For each group, a menu of a lumbar stabilization program was designed. This program included 8 levels of exercise ( single leg knee to chest stretch, double leg knee to chest, supine piriformis stretch, supine hamstring stretch, lower trunk rotation stretch, lumbar rotation stretch, pelvic tilt, pelivic tilt with alternative legs). Exercises were tailored for each individual ability and, if possible, progressed at each session which would last approximately 30 minutes. Each single exercise was repeated many times based on the patient's clinical condition. All sessions were provided by physiotherapists.
