- Brief Summary
The aim of this study is to compare the effects of brunkow exercise program and lumbar stabilization exercises on pain, range of motion and disability in patients with chronic non- specific low back pain
- Detailed Description
The majority of research studies have primarily focused on lumbar stabilization exercises used as a standard treatment with mobilization. To the best of our knowledge it has shown that lumbar stabilization exercises alone are less efficient than lumbar stabilization exercises in strengthening muscular strength and decreasing pain in female patients with persistent low back pain than lumbar stabilization exercises combined with pain neuroscience education. However, more extensive research on a range of educational and activity programs was required. Stabilization exercises with other modalities, manual techniques, mobilizations, or exercise therapy have been practiced in the treatment of chronic non specific low back pain were found effective individually, but there was a lack of comprehensive studies including randomized clinical trials directly comparing the brunkow exercises program with stabilization exercises in patients with chronic non- specific low back pain.
This study investigates and adds up an effective and evolutionary treatment protocol in the world of physical therapy for the management of chronic non-specific low back pain rather than other conventional therapy providing to the patients with chronic low back pain now a days.

- Primary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Numeric rating scale (NRS-11) 4 weeks It is is an eleven-point scale in which the end points are the extremes of no pain at all (score of 0) and the worst pain the patient has ever experienced (score of 10). NRS-11 pain severity score of "4" is frequently given special significance in this regard, suggesting it as a potential threshold value for pain severity in clinical practice. (28).
This scale has high reliability (0.95-0.96) and validity (0.86-0.96).Modified oswestry disability index 4 weeks The ODI is a disease-specific disability measure is used to establish a level of disability, stage a patient's acuity status and monitor change over time. The ODI is made up of 10 questions. Each question is scored from 0-5 (minimum to maximum). This tool is considered as a gold standard for back pain functional. Test-retest reliability has been shown to be high. Values range from r= 0.83 to 0.99 and vary according to the time interval between measurements. ODI = (Sum of items scored/Sum of sections answered) X 100
Inclinometer 4 weeks Inclinometers are portable, lightweight, and inexpensive pieces of equipment that are used to measure range of motion, like goniometry.1 Inclinometers are typically found in clinics and are used as a part of a physical examination. An intraclass correlation coefficient (ICC) was found to be between 0.87- 0.95. Range of motion is the measurement of movement around a specific joint or body part.
