ABSTRACT

Low back pain with Sacroiliac joint dysfunction is one of the major causes of low back pain.  The present study conducted in order to find out the efficacy of Sacroiliac (SI) joint manipulation with exercises and conventional physiotherapy exercises on improvement in the low back pain patients with sacroiliac joint dysfunction. Total 120 patients with low back pain with Sacroiliac joint dysfunction from the Physiotherapy O.P.D., UIHS, CSJM University, Kanpur were divided into two groups and evaluated to find out the efficacy of the treatment. The study concluded from the results that the overall improvement in low back pain is better in Group A i.e. where the selected 60 patients were given Sacro-iliac joint manipulation with exercises than the Group B where the selected 60 patients were given conventional physiotherapy exercises.
