Summary

The purpose of the study is to compare the immediate effects of thrust versus non-thrust lumbar manipulation in individuals with lumbar hypo-mobility on lumbar range of motion and springing force tolerance. A randomized control trial was conducted at Max Rehab and Physical Therapy Centre, Islamabad. The sample size was 18 calculated through open-epi tool but I recruited 60. The participants were divided into two interventional groups each having 30 participants. The study duration was six months. Sampling technique applied was Purposive sampling for recruitment and group randomization using flip coin method. Only 20 to 35 years participants with grade one or two hypo-mobility at lumbar region were included in the study. Tools used in this study are Goniometer, Inclinometers (lumbar Inclinometry using dual inclinometer method),Digital Algometer, Self structured Questionnaire. Data was collected before and immediately after the application of interventions. Data analyzed through SPSS version 23.

Conditions

  • Hypomotility
  • Lumbar Spine Instability

Interventions

OTHER

Thrust joint lumbar manipulation

Moist Hot pack of 14/15' over lumbar region for 15 mins. Hydro collator Temperature according to standardized hot pack is 40-45οC.Bilateral Thrust Manipulation of Lumbar Spine from L1-L5 Baseline Algometer for springing force tolerance and Lumbar Inclinometry using dual inclinometer for lumbar flexion, extension and goniometer for lumbar side bending.These pre and post intervention values were mentioned in questionnaire. The participants were administered with thrust and non-thrust manipulation of the lumbar spine and data was collected again immediately after the interventions without any delay.

OTHER

Lumbar mobilization

Moist Hot pack of 14/15' from L1 where ribcage ends up to the region of gluteal folds for 15 mins. Non Thrust Manipulation for 30 seconds Using Kaltenborn grade 3 (Stretch rotation mobilization).Baseline Algometer for springing force tolerance and Lumbar Inclinometry using dual inclinometerfor lumbar flexion, extension and goniometer for lumbar side bending. These pre and post intervention values were mentioned in questionnaire. The participants were administered with thrust and non-thrust manipulation of the lumbar spine and data was collected again immediately after the interventions without any delay.
