Summary

The aim of the study is to determine the effectiveness of breathing exercises combined with core stabilization exercises in mothers with chronic non-specific low back pain of children with special health care needs.

Conditions

  • Chronic Low-back Pain

Interventions

OTHER

Breathing exercises

Breathing exercises consist of the techniques of diaphragmatic and pursed-lip breathing. During the diaphragmatic breathing, attention is focused on the correct abdominal breathing. The pursed-lip breathing is one step further to the diaphragmatic breathing and a technique designed to have control time and volume over breathing.

OTHER

Stabilization exercises

Training about the concepts of stabilization and abdominal bracing is given before starting to the study. The motor control tests for local muscles transversus abdominus and multifidi are performed after the training. The abdominal bracing test is performed in the quadruped position, in prone, and in hook lying position with the patient's spine supine with hips and knees flexed and knees in contact with the surface. The second stage consists of closed-chain segmental control exercises. It is a series of weight-bearing exercises are performed on stable and unstable surfaces. The last stage of the stabilization program is an open kinetic chain exercise to promote distal stability.
