To Compare the Effect of Lumbar Stabilization Exercise and Conservative Treatment in Lowback Pain for Healthcare Professionals

Introduction: Lumbar stabilization exercise provides a greater support to spine and helps in preventing low back pain. Lumbar stabilization exercise includes pelvic tilting, Knee to chest position, lumbar rotation stretch, transverse abdominis tuck, hip bridging exercises. Aim: The aim of the study is to determine the effectiveness of lumbar stabilization exercises and conservative treatment in low back pain for health care professionals. Method: 30 subjects were selected based on the inclusion and exclusion criteria. Group A Consist of 15 subjects were given lumbar stabilization exercise with interferential therapy. Group B Consists of 15 subjects were given conservative treatment with interferential therapy. The outcome factor used is NPRS (Numerical pain rating scale) and Modified Oswestry low back pain disability Questionnaire. The collected data was tabulated & analyzed using descriptive & inferential statistics. Result: paired t-test revealed that the mean are statistically significant between pre-test and post test in lunbar stabilization group with p<0.05 and the unpaired t-test conducted between group A and B resulted that there was a significant difference between the groups with the p value of 0.0001. Conclusion: This study concluded that lumbar stabilization exercises with interferential therapy (Group A) is more effective than conservative management with interferential therapy (Group B) in the management of low back pain among healthcare professionals.
