Outcomes
Primary Outcomes
Numeric Pain Rating Scale
Time Frame: From enrollment to the end of treatment at 6 weeks.
Numeric Pain Rating scale is used to measure intensity of pain. It ranges from 0 to 10 where 0 represents no pain, 1-3 represents mild pain, 4-6 represents moderate pain and 7-10 shows severe pain.
Oswestry Disability Index
Time Frame: From enrollment to the end of treatment at 6 weeks
Oswetry Disability index is a questionnaire consisting of 10 questions used to asses functional disability in patients with low back pain. In this scale, 0-20% = minimal disability, 21-40% = moderate disability, 41-60% = severe disability, 61-80% = crippled and 81-100% = bedbound.
Secondary Outcomes
- ROM Lumbar spine (Flexion)(From enrollment to end of treatment at 6 weeks.)
- ROM of Lumbar Spine ( Extension)(From enrollment to the end of treatment at 6 weeks)
