Brief Summary

The aim of the study is to investigate the efficacy of connective tissue massage and lumbar stabilization exercise treatment on pain severity, functional capacity and quality of life in those who have experienced peripheral neuropathy

Conditions

Peripheral Neuropathy

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

• Visual Analog Scale

  visual analogue scale measures pain on a horizontal 100mm line. The most left side on this line is defined no pain and the most right side is defined as 'the most severe pain imaginable'. Patients mark a point on the line according to the pain they feel. The pain level is measured in millimeters from the left to the marked point. we evaluate the current pain, the usual pain in the last month, the worst pain in the last month.
