Background: Low back pain is the common condition people with borderline mckenzie
Method are popular active treatment approach that include both exercise and information for patient with chronic LBP.
Objectives: To assess the effectiveness of mckenzie approach for quadratus lumborum
Dysfunction in people with borderline BMI.
Design: Single group, pre and post experimental study, single centre included patient with
LBA.
Methodology; The experimental study included 26 people with low back pain based on the Inclusion and exclusion criteria. Subjects were explained about the mckenzie exercises. Oswestry disability index and VAS scales was taken as outcome measures and checked before and after completion of 4 weeks.
Result: The study shows significant improvement when assessed post study used in VAS scale and OSWESTRY scales with P<0.005. Hence reject the null hypothesis and accept alternate hypothesis. Which states that significant effect of Mckenzie protocol reducing severity of back pain and improving functional activity.
Conclusion: The study has concluded that mckenzie approach for quadratus lumborum
dysfunction in patients suffering from CLBP with borderline BMI has shown great improvement by reducing pain and improving functional activity.So, further effort should be forward promoting mckenzie approach as a part of physiotherapist rehab service whenever necessary with goal of reducing LBP.
