ABSTRACT

Background: Low back pain (LBP) is one of the most communal illnesses with a lifetime prevalence estimating to be as high as 84%. Low back pain is found to be one of the foremost causes of health problems in the developed countries. The prevalence of low back pain differs from 5%-65%.

Methodology: The study was conducted in an outpatient physical therapy department in Shri. U.S.B. college of Physiotherapy, Abu road, Rajasthan and Lions Physiotherapy Centre, Abu Road, Rajasthan. The participants were 50 patients selected after screening of 84 patients, both male and female sex with primary complaints of non-specific low back pain. The participants were randomly selected to both group (Group A experimental group & Group B Control group). Group A received motor control exercises and Group B received detuned SWD & U.S. respectively. Outcomes of treatment was recorded using NPRS (Numeric pain rating scale ), Lumbar Flexion ROM by Modified Schober Method & MODI (Modified Oswestry Low Back Pain Disability Index) compared and evaluated during the difference obtained from pre-study to post-study results from MODI, Lumbar Flexion ROM & NPRS .

Results: Patients allocated to the group A (MCE group) showed significant improvement in functional disability, Lumbar Flexion ROM and pain intensity as compared to the Control group i.e. group B.

Conclusions: While comparing the evaluated report and effects of motor controlled exercise and control group, MCE program was found more effective than control group. This is compared and evaluated during the difference obtained from pre and post studies result from MODI, Lumbar Flexion ROM and NPRS process. Therefore, it appears that motor control exercises has better role in reducing pain and disability in subjects with non-specific LBP.

KEY WORDS– Motor control exercises, Non-specific low back pain, NPRS (Numeric pain rating scale) & MODI (Modified Oswestry Disability Index).
