Official title
Effect of Pumped Technique for Ilio-lumber Ligament Release on Postnatal Low Back Pain
Overview
The iliolumbar ligament, one of the sacroiliac ligaments, has been identified in recent research as a contributor to low back pain when tight. During pregnancy, hormonal changes and postural changes can cause this ligament to tighten, leading to pain. Releasing the iliolumbar ligament can reduce low back pain and restore normal mechanical function.
Detailed description
Group A (Control group) It will be consisted of postnatal women and will be treated by hot packs for 20 minutes three times per week for 8 weeks.
Group B (study group) the participant will treated by hot packs for 20 min in additional to pumping technique for iliolumbar ligament release for 30 min. 3 times per week for 8 weeks.
Interventions
- Other pumped technique for ilio-lumbar ligament release
Patient position: the patient lying supine or side lying Therapist position: standing on one side of patient. Hand grip: one hand placed on posterior region of iliac crest (close to attachment of ilio-lumbar ligament) while other hand stabilize the medial part of thigh. Therapist force: therapist pulling patient's thigh posteriorly. - Other Hot Packs
postnatal women will be treated by hot packs for 20 minutes three times per week for 8 weeks.
Primary outcome measures
- Visual analog scale (VAS): [Time frame: 8 weeks]
- Goniometer [Time frame: 8 weeks]
- Inclinometer [Time frame: 8 weeks]
