No results posted yet for this study

Summary

Current study aim to evaluate the effect of Superficial back line relaxation techniques (SMIT along with CCFE) In Non Specific Low back Pain Patients in order to improve pain and hamstring flexibility.

And To find out the association between sub occipital muscle inhibition technique (SMIT) and cranial cervical flexion exercise (CCFE) in nonspecific low back pain patients with hamstring tightness.

The study aims to enhance the functional status and posture of patients suffering from nonspecific low back pain due to hamstring tightness, thereby enhancing patient efficiency in performing ADLS and IADLS.

Conditions

  • Low Back Pain, Mechanical
  • Hamstring Flexibility

Interventions

OTHER

Conventional physical therapy

lower limb muscle stretching ( pelvic bridging, Knee to chest,cat and camel stretch) (30 seconds hold and 3 sets of 5 repetitions with 1 min rest interval in between each set, per session on daily basis for only one week for immediate results and for long term effect on alternate 3 days in remaining 2nd ,3rd week). Treatment protocol will be given on daily basis to check immediate effect and for long term effect treatment will be given in alternating 3 days for remaining 2 weeks. Total 12 session were given (3 weeks).

OTHER

Experimental group was given superficial back line relaxation includes SMIT \& CCFE along with conventional therapy includes lower limb muscle stretching. SMIT For short term effect 10-12 repetitions per session, on daily basis for 1st week. For long term effect 10-12 repetitions per session, for 3 alternate days in remaining 2nd\&3rd week. CCFE For short term effect 3 sets of 10 reps , 10 sec hold , 1 min rest after each set, on daily basis for 1st week. For long term effect 3 sets of 10 reps, 10 sec hold , 1 min rest after each set, for 3 alternate days , remaining 2nd \& 3rd week.
