简要总结
Title : EFFECT OF IASTM VS DRY CUPPING ON CHRONIC MECHANICAL LOW BACK PAIN – RANDOMIZED CONTROLLED TRIAL.
Aim : To determine the effects of IASTM vs Dry Cupping along with core stabilization exercises in individuals with chronic mechanical low back pain.
Hypothesis : Null Hypothesis (H0) : There will be no difference in effect of IASTM vs Dry Cupping along with core stabilization exercises on individuals with low back pain.
Alternate Hypothesis (H1) : There will be a difference in effect of IASTM vs Dry Cupping along with core stabilization exercises on individuals with low back pain.
Inclusion Criteria : 1) Participants of all genders, aged 18-45 years with low back pain.
2) Low back pain for 3 months or more
3) Willingness to participate in the study
4) Pain of 3 to 7 on VAS scale.
Exclusion Criteria : 1) History of fractures within the past 6 months.
2) History of malignancies/cancer
3) History of previous spinal surgery
4) Disc herniation with radiculopathy
5) Peripheral vascular disease, bleeding disorders
6) Impaired sensation
7) Impaired ability to communicate/cognitive impairments
Procedure :
Participants will be briefed about the purpose of the study. Participants will be screened based on the inclusion and exclusion criteria prior to their enrolment in the study. A written Informed consent will be given to the participants in their own language and those consenting to participate in the study will be presented with the interventions. Participants will be recruited from the tertiary care hospitals after screening them for mechanical low back pain using VAS scale. Demographic data will be documented. Participants will be randomly allocated into two groups using chit method. Post assessment of outcome measures will subsequently be done after one month of follow up.
