Summary

Non-specific low back pain is defined as low back pain not attributable to an identifiable, known specific pathology. Non-specific low back pain accounts for over 90% of patients presenting to primary care and these are the majority of the individuals with low back pain that present to physiotherapy.Objective of this study is to compare the effects of rhythmic stabilization and McKenzie technique on pain and function in patients with non-specific chronic low back pain

Conditions

Interventions

OTHER

Rhythmic Stabilization (RS)

Group A includes rhythmic stabilization technique. The patient is in sitting position and faces the physical therapist. The RST program consisted of alternating (trunk flexion-extension) isometric contractions against resistance for 10 seconds, with no motion intended. Subjects performed 3 sets of 15 repetitions at maximal resistance provided by the same physical therapist. Rest intervals of 30 seconds and 60 seconds were provided after the completion of 15 repetitions for each pattern and between sets, respectively. The total duration of RS will be of approximately 33 minutes

OTHER

McKenzie technique

McKenzie technique will be guided to conduct four extension exercises and three flexion exercisesAll flexion exercises will be repeated for ten repetitions for two sets. There are three minutes for resting intervals in every set. The McKenzie treatment will lasted for 20-40 minutes.
