Summary

The aim of this randomized controlled trial is to find the effectiveness of low load blood restriction training on improving hamstring muscle strength, alleviating pain and reducing functional disability in nonspecific low back pain patients

Conditions

  • Low Back Pain

Interventions

OTHER

Conventional PT

All interventional participants will attend 3 weekly 45-50 minutes sessions for a duration of four week. Group B will receive electrical hot packs for 8-10 minutes followed by myofascial releases using a foam roller for 5-8 minutes primarily targeting the hamstring. Total 4 sets of each exercise (Glute bridge exercises, lumbar extension exercise, straight leg raise from prone and table top exercises) with 20 repetitions will be performed. Allow 30-60 sec rest interval

Low Blood Flow Restriction Training

All interventional participants will attend 3 weekly 45-50 minutes sessions for a duration of four week. Group A will receive electrical hot packs for 8-10 minutes followed by myofascial releases using a foam roller for 5-8 minutes primarily targeting the hamstring. For low load BFR training therapist will place sphygmomanometer cuff 10cm below the inguinal crease on the upper 3rd of thigh. The inflation pressure range will be individualized intended to produce complete arterial occlusion measured manually by palpating posterior tibial artery until the pulse will be felt no longer. Deflate the pressure cuff up to 60-80% of the AOP to create partial arterial occlusion. Total 4 sets of each exercise (Hamstring curls, Single leg hamstring curls on stability ball, standing hamstring curl, hamstring curl with sliders) with 30 repetitions in 1st set and then 15 repetitions in remaining 3 sets. Allow 30-60 sec rest interval between sets
