No results posted yet for this study

Summary

Low back pain with lumbar radiculopathy is a common condition that significantly affects functional ability and quality of life. Manual therapy is widely used as a first-line treatment to reduce pain and improve mobility.

This study aims to compare the effectiveness of spinal mobilization with leg movement (SMWLM) and neurodynamic mobilization in patients with lumbar radiculopathy. A total of 20 participants were randomly assigned into two groups. One group received SMWLM, while the other group received neurodynamic mobilization of the sciatic nerve over a treatment period of six weeks.

Outcomes included pain intensity, quality of life, and hip range of motion. The results of this study aim to identify the more effective intervention for improving clinical outcomes in patients with lumbar radiculopathy.

Conditions

  • Lumbar Radiculopathy
  • Low Back Pain

Interventions

OTHER

Spinal Mobilization With Leg Movement

This intervention involves applying sustained accessory spinal mobilization combined with active or passive leg movement to improve joint mechanics, reduce nerve compression, and enhance mobility.

OTHER

Neurodynamic Mobilization

Neurodynamic mobilization techniques were applied to mobilize the sciatic nerve and surrounding tissues to restore neural function, reduce tension, and improve mobility.
