Lumbopelvic Stabilization Versus Pilates Exercises On Gait Phases And Peak Pressure On Foot In Low Back Pain
- Conditions
- Low Back Pain
- Interventions
- Other: pilates exerciseOther: lumbopelvic stabilization exercisesOther: conventional therapy
- Registration Number
- NCT04942782
- Lead Sponsor
- Cairo University
- Brief Summary
the purpose of this trial is to investigate and compare between lumbopelvic stabilization and pilates exercises on gait cycle phases and maximum peak pressure on the foot in chronic nonspecific low back pain?
- Detailed Description
LBP is the leading cause of activity limitation, results in significant losses in productivity at work, and incurs billions of dollars in medical expenditure annually So, the aim of physical therapy treatment in the patient with chronic nonspecific low back pain is more effective in improving gait cycle phases and maximum peak pressure on the foot and help LBP patients to walk normally as much as possible, also this will improve our body of knowledge about the best modalities for treating LBP. The finding of this study may help LBP patients avoid exposure to complications due to altered gait cycle phases and maximum peak pressure on the foot. Also, it will help physiotherapists to know which treatment will be effective in improving gait cycle phases and maximum peak pressure on the foot. one hundred patients with mechanical low back pain will be allocated randomly to three groups; group A will receive pilates, group B will receive lumbopelvic stabilization exercise and group C will receive strengthening exercises for the abdominals, back, and hip muscles

- Primary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method gait cycle phases and maximum peak pressure on foot up to twelve weeks gait cycle phases and peak pressure will be measure by Tekscan walkway
