Summary

To compare between core stability exercise and diaphragmatic release on respiratory functions on physical therapists with low back pain.

Conditions

  • Mechanical Low Back Pain
  • Respiratory Functions

Interventions

DEVICE

Core stabilization exercise using pressure biofeedback unit

From crook lying: * 1st and 2nd weeks LEVEL 1: ADIM and hold for 10 seconds LEVEL 2 : Hold for 5 sec. Repeat 10 times. Opposite lower extremity on plinth; bent leg fall out. * 3rd and 4th week LEVEL 3 : Opposite lower extremity on plinth a)Lift bend leg to 90˚ hip flexion b)Slide heel to extend knee c)Lift straight leg to 45˚. * 5th and 6th weeks LEVEL 4 : Hold opposite lower extremity at 90˚ of hip flexion a)Lift bend leg to 90˚ hip flexion b)Slide heel to extend knee c)Lift straight leg to 45˚. From prone lying: Extension of each lower extremity. The exercise progression each week will be evaluated.Each exercise session lasted 20 min. The patients had to hold each exercise for 10 seconds, three sets per session and each set 10 repetitions.

PROCEDURE
