Summary

This study aims to investigate the impact of electromagnetic field therapy on pain severity and functional disability in mechanical back pain patients suffering from myofascial trigger points.

Conditions

  • Mechanical Low Back Pain

Interventions

RADIATION

Pulsed electromagnetic field

The experimental group will be treated with an ASA magnetic field device (Automatic PMT Quattro Pro) at a frequency of 50 Hz in addition to the traditional physical therapy program. Each session will consist of 20 minutes of the patient lying prone and exposed to low-intensity 20-gauss PEMF.

OTHER

traditional physical therapy program

A traditional physical therapy program will include Infrared radiation for 20 minutes per session for 3 sessions per week for 4 weeks Ultrasonic: 1 MHz; continuous mode of application: 1.5 w/cm2 for 5 minutes; 3 sessions per week for 4 weeks. stretching exercises for the hamstring, calf muscles, and back muscles. 3 sessions per week for 4 weeks Strengthening exercises for back and abdominal muscles.
