Summary

Sacroiliac joint is in pelvis. It links the iliac bone (pelvic) bone to the sacrum. This joint pain is due to hyper mobility or instability of the joint, it may also cause by damage to joint between the spine and hip. This pain is typically felt in the lower back, or hip and may radiate to groin area. The aim of this study will be to compare the effects of stabilization exercises and muscle energy techniques on pain and disability in patients with sacroiliac joint pain.

Conditions

  • Sacroiliac Joint Somatic Dysfunction

Interventions

OTHER

Stabilization exercises

Stabilization training is an active form of physical therapy designed to strengthen muscles to support the spine and help prevent lower back pain. Group A performed stabilization exercises for 4 weeks. In stabilization exercises, floor bridging, heel prop and alternate arm and leg exercises were administered in iliopsoas, gluteal and hamstring groups. On eligible participants baseline assessment was done,3 sessions were given 3days per week, post intervention assessment was taken at 4th week.

OTHER

Muscle energy techniques

Muscle Energy Technique (MET) is a is a form of manual therapy, widely used in Osteopathy, that uses a muscle's own energy in the form of gentle isometric contractions to relax the muscles via autogenic or reciprocal inhibition and lengthen the muscle. Muscle energy techniques were given to group B. These techniques are active form of manual therapy in which patient uses its own energy on request to aid in treatment. On eligible participants baseline assessment was done,3 sessions were given 3days per week, post intervention assessment was taken at 4th week.
