Brief Summary

Low back pain (LBP) is one of most prevalent types of musculoskeletal pain and is strongly related to disability. The McKenzie method is one of most popular treatment options for LBP. The objectives of this study are to determine the effect of the hands-on McKenzie program on pain, disability, spine mobility, and posture deviations in subjects with derangement low back pain.

Conditions

Low Back Pain

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

• Pain Numerical Rating Scale (PNRS).

  For assessing the pain in the low back.

  Two weeks

Secondary Outcomes (4)

• Spine mobility

  Two weeks

• Centralization or non-centralizer (Peripheralization) of patient symptoms.

  Two weeks.

• Postural alterations.

  Two weeks

• Disability associated with LBP

  Two weeks
