No results posted yet for this study

Summary

This study will compare three different groups for lumbar disc herniation. The first group will do fascia exercises via a mobile application, the second group will do fascia exercises via a home leaflet, and the third group will do lumbar stabilization exercises via a home leaflet. Since there is not yet a mobile application that includes fascia exercises, this application will be made available to patients for home use after it is developed during the study.

The physiotherapist will teach the exercises in the clinical setting in three different groups.

Conditions

  • Lumbar Disc Disease
  • Lumbal Disc Herniation

Interventions

OTHER

fascial exercise home brochure

Fascia exercises are taught by the physiotherapist in the clinical setting and if the exercises are performed incorrectly, intervention is made and the correct exercise is taught. At home, the individual is motivated and monitored with an exercise diary. He/she remembers the exercises from the home brochure.

OTHER

Fascial exercise based mobile application

Fascia exercises are taught by the physiotherapist in the clinical setting and if the exercises are performed incorrectly, intervention is made and the correct exercise is taught. At home, the individual is motivated and monitored with an exercise diary. Performs the exercises by watching videos on the mobile application. The physiotherapist intervenes in motivation with instant notifications via the mobile application.

OTHER

lumbal stabilizasyon home brochure

Participants assigned to the intervention group will receive a structured home-based lumbar stabilization exercise program designed to improve spinal stability, core muscle control, and functional performance. The program will target deep trunk stabilizer muscles, including the transversus abdominis and multifidus, through low-load, motor control-based exercises. The intervention will last for 14 days, with exercises to be performed 3 times for everyday, Each session will last approximately 20-30 minutes and consist of: Warm-up (1 minutes): Breathing exercises and gentle mobility Core Stabilization (15-20 minutes): Exercises such as abdominal hollowing, bridging, bird-dog, side plank, and dead bug - progressing from static holds to dynamic movements as tolerated Cool-down (1 minutes): Light stretching and relaxation
