Effects of Sahrmann's Versus Janda Approach in Lower Crossed Syndrome Patients

Официальное название

Effects of Sahrmann's Versus Janda Approach on Pain, Pelvic Tilt and Lumbar Lordosis in Lower Crossed Syndrome Patients

Обзор

Muscular imbalance due to prolonged sitting or standing posture leads to a condition lower cross syndrome(LCS) or lumbopelvic syndrome. Several stretching and strengthening regimens are used to treat cross pattern of muscular tightness and weakness in LCS. This study aims to compare the effects of Sahrmann's versus Janda's approach on pain, pelvic tilt and lumbar lordosis in lower crossed syndrome patients.

Подробное описание

This study will be a randomized clinical trial and will be conducted in physiotherapy department of Rasheed Hospital, DHA. Non probability convenience sampling will be used to collect data. Sample size of 54 with age group between 18 to 40 years will be taken. Data will be collected from the patient who fulfilled the criteria of LCS. Outcome measures will be taken by using Numeric Pain Rating Scale (NPRS) for pain, I Handy Level for Pelvic tilt, flexible ruler for lumbar angle. An informed consent will be taken. Subjects will be selected on the basis of inclusion and exclusion criteria and will be equally divided into two groups by random number generator table. Group A will receive Sahrmann's exercise protocol while group B will receive Janda's Approach. Both groups will receive 10 mins heating pad and 10 mins Tens for muscle relaxation. Outcome measures will be measured at baseline and then at 4th week. Data Analysis will be done by IBM SPSS version 21.
