Abstract

Background: During the Covid-19 pandemic, people experienced a decrease in daily activities, resulting in shortening of hamstring muscle flexibility. Physiotherapy can help increase the flexibility of the hamstring muscles by providing proprioceptive neuromuscular facilitation (PNF) hold relax. Objective: To determine the effect of PNF hold relax on hamstring muscle flexibility in adolescents. Method: the research method is experimental with a one group pre and post test research design carried out in February-March 2022. The subjects are students at Madrasah Aliah Nawa Kartika, Wonogiri. Using random sampling, 50 subjects were divided into 2 groups, I, numbering 25, and group II, numbering 25. Measuring hamstring muscle flexibility using the active knee extension test (AKET). Results: The results from the treatment group obtained a p value = 0.000. The results in the control group obtained a p value = 0.151. The Man Whitney test between the treatment and control groups resulted in p = 0.000. Conclusion: Providing Proprioceptive Neuromuscular Facilitation (PNF) hold relax has an effect on increasing hamstring muscle flexibility in adolescents.

Abstract

Background: Non-specific low back pain is a complaints of pain that occurs in the lower back for which the cause is not clearly known. Core stability exercise is an exercise to activate the core muscles which can increase spinal stabilization and increase muscle strength so that functional activity increases. Objective: This study aims to determine the effect of providing core stability exercise on increasing functional activity in sufferers of non-specific low back pain. Method: The design of this research is one group pre and post-test with control. This research was conducted 3 times a week for 4 weeks with the sample being workers at PT. Iskandartext Solo which has met the inclusion criteria. In this study, it will be grouped into two groups with the measuring instrument used, namely the Oswestry disability index (ODI). Results: The average ODI value before and after treatment was 25.47 and 18.80 and the results of statistical tests using the paired t test showed p=0.000 (p<0.05), this shows that there is an effect of providing core stability exercise on increase in functional activity. Conclusion: There is the influence of givingcore stability exercise towards increasing functional activity in suffererslow back pain non-specific.
