Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (2)

  • Modified Oswestry Low Back Pain Disability Questionnaire

    The Modified Oswestry Low Back Pain Disability Questionnaire is a gold-standard tool used to measure a patient's functional disability level resulting from low back pain.

    6 weeks

  • Visual Analogue Scale

    The Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) is used to measure pain intensity. The VAS typically consists of a 100 mm (10 cm) horizontal line where zero means no pain and ten indicates worst possible pain.

    6 weeks

Study Arms (2)

Gong's mobilization

EXPERIMENTAL

A pain-free, sustained glide is applied to the sacroiliac joint by the therapist. The patient simultaneously performs active movements.

Other: Gong's mobilization

Jone's positional release

EXPERIMENTAL

The therapist identifies a tender point. The patient is positioned in a way that reduces pain significantly. This position is held for about 90 seconds and the patient is then slowly returned to a neutral position.

Other: Jone's positional release

Interventions
