Summary

This study will be a randomized control trial and will be conducted in Riphah International Hospital, National orthopedic and specialist hospital, Riphah international hospital and Chambeli institute of physiotherapy. A sample of 34 participants will be taken. Participants will be randomized into Group A and Group B through lottery method. Group A will receive High Dose Neural Mobilization Technique, Hot pack for 15 minutes, strengthening exercises with 10rep/8sets , strengthening exercises for quadriceps and static stretching exercise for hamstring with 10 rep/8sets, While Group B will receive Low Dose Neural Mobilization Technique with minimal intensity, hot pack: 15 minutes, strengthening exercises with 10rep/4sets. Both groups will be given session of 40 min/day, 2 days/week for 4 weeks, assessment will be done at baseline, at the end of 1st week, 2nd week, 3rd week \& at the end of 4th week. The outcome measure will be Numeric Pain Rating Scale (NPRS), Oswestry Disability Index (ODI), Active Knee Extension test (AKE) and Lumbar flexion by Schober method. Data will be analyzed be SPSS 22.

Conditions

  • Non-specific Low Back Pain

Interventions

OTHER

High Dose Neural Mobilization Technique

Patients in This Group will receive the high dose neural mobilization along with hot pack, strengthening exercises, Neural mobilization technique (slump, sciatic). Participants in the NMG will be asked to actively perform knee extension, ankle dorsiflexion, and head extension in a slumped posture (body and neck semi flexion) followed by simultaneous ankle plantar flexion together with knee and head flexion, Hot pack for 15 minutes, Strengthening exercises of muscles with 10 /8sets. Strengthening exercises of quadriceps with10 rep/8sets, Static stretching exercise for hamstring muscle with 10 rep/8sets, Group A will be given session of 40 min/day, 2 days/week for 4 weeks.

OTHER

Low Dose Neural Mobilization Technique

Patients in this Group will receive the same treatment as group A but with less intensity and low dosage. Hot pack: 15 minutes, Strengthening exercises of muscles with 10 rep/4sets, Static stretching exercise for hamstring muscle with 10 rep/4sets. Group B will be given session of 40min/day, 2 days/week for 4weeks.
