Summary

\[Background\] Low back pain occurs when a poor lifestyle weakens the muscular strength of the waist and excessive loads on and tensions of the muscles create pain. Mediating muscle weakening to stabilize the trunk is an important aspect in the recovery of body function in patients with LBP \[Purpose\], this study was conducted to investigate the effect of core stability exercises combined with ball and balloon exercises on chronic non-specific low back pain. \[Subjects and Methods\] a sixty patient of chronic non-specific low back pain were randomly assigned into two groups, group (A) received core stability exercises combined with ball and balloon exercises and group (B) received core stability exercises, these exercises were performed for three times a week for four weeks. Pain was assessed by visual analogue scale (VAS). Spinal function was measured by Arabic Oswestery Disability Index (AODI) and pulmonary function was assessed by pulmonary function test including forced expiratory volume in the first second (FEV1), forced vital capacity (FVC), FEV1/FVC, maximum voluntary ventilation (MVV) and peak expiratory flow (PEF) before and after the study.

The second group received hemibridge with ball and balloon exercise in combination to core stability exercises. Protocol of hemibridge with ball and balloon exercise The hemibridge with ball as well as balloon exercise was provided to the participants over the course of three sessions per week. Instructions 1. supine-lying position, feet up against a wall, and bend your knees as well as hips to a 90° angle. 2.
