Abstract

Background: Low back pain (LBP) is a common condition associated with work absenteeism, disabilityand large health care costs with an annual prevalence range from 22% to 65%.Chronic low back pain is thecondition where the back pain lasts for more than three months. Lumbar traction is the process of applying astretching force to the lumbar vertebrae through body weight, weights, and/or pulleys to distract individualjoints of the lumbar spine. Myofascial release (MFR) is a form of manual medicine which involves theapplication of a low load, long duration stretch to the myofascial complex, intended to restore optimallength, decrease pain, and improve function. Medicated steam therapy is a method of giving medicatedsteam over the affected muscular area in order to provide local effect of pain relief. All the three methodswill be applied together to see the effect.Methods/Design: The study will be designed as a pilot study. A total of 30 samples will be taken withnonspecific low back pain. NPRS and Modified Oswestry Disability index was taken before treatment.Intervention including traction, myofascial release therapy and medicated steam will be given. . Two sessionswill be given once a week for 3 weeks and outcome will be recorded.Discussion: Various studies have been conducted over the effect of lumbar traction over low back pain.Traction distracts the muscles and the joint helps in relieving the pain. One of the therapeutic options istraction, which can be combined with other physical therapy modalities. Combining effect of traction withhot fermentation has been effective study have shown. It has been claimed that traction therapy results inlessening the muscle spasm

Abstract

Background: Balance impairment is one of the most prevalent concern with increasing age. Globally, Onein five older adult experiences balance problem. Prevalence of fall has been estimated at 14-53 %in India.Various intervention has already been use to prevent fall and improve quality of life. Static StabilizationExercises and Progressive Strength training have proven to be effective as a single intervention howeverminimal literature is available on combined effect of both. The main objective of study is to find out efficacyof combined Static Stabilization Exercises and Progressive Resistive Exercises on balance and quality of lifeof elderly population and also establishment of dose response relationship of balance training.Methods/Design: The study will be designed as experimental study. 100 participants will be selected asper inclusion and exclusion criteria and will be allocated in two groups, Combined Intervention Group (A)and Traditional Balance Intervention group (B). Both intervention include 30-45 min session which will becarried out 3-5 times in week for duration of 8 weeks structured into different components. Outcome will beBalance and Quality of Life and outcome measures will be evaluated at baseline, at midway (4th week) andat the end (8th week) of intervention period. Statistical Analysis will be done using SPSS24. Oversion andp<0.005 will be considered as level of significance.Discussion: The study protocol details two Physiotherapy Interventions to improve balance and qualityof life in elderly population. In current literatures there are minimal evidence on combined effect of StaticStabilization Exercises and Progressive Resistive Exercises on balance and quality of life. SuccessfulCompletion of trial will provide evidence for best strategy targeting balance and quality of life andrelationship of dose response and balance training.
