Study of Mulligans Mobilization with Movement Combined With Kinetic Control Training to Improve Pain, Movement, Gait, and Daily Function in Adults with Sacroiliac Joint Dysfunction Aged 45 to 64

What this Trial Is About

This research aims to compare the combined effects of Mulligans Mobilization with Movement MWM and kinetic control training versus kinetic control training alone on pain, range of motion, gait, and functional disability in adults with sacroiliac joint dysfunction SIJD. SIJD is a common cause of low back and pelvic pain that leads to movement problems and disability, affecting both active and sedentary adults. The study addresses the limited evidence on how these therapies work together to improve symptoms and function. Participants are divided into two groups one receiving routine physical therapy plus kinetic control training targeting specific muscles along with Mulligans MWM, and the other receiving routine physical therapy plus Mulligans MWM alone. Treatments include superficial heating, stretching, strengthening exercises, and specific manual therapy techniques tailored to correct joint positioning and improve motor control. The intervention lasts for 8 weeks, with sessions held three times a week. During the study, participants will undergo assessments measuring pain using the Numeric Pain Rating Scale, joint range of motion via inclinometer, gait analysis, and functional disability using the Modified Oswestry Disability Index. These evaluations will occur at the 8-week mark. The study includes double-blind randomization and monitors outcomes related to pain, movement, and function to better understand the impact of combined therapy approaches in SIJD management.
