Randomized Trial Comparing Physiotherapy Treatments for Anterior Pelvic Tilt and Non-Specific Low Back Pain Evaluating Core Stability, Manual Therapy, Stretching, and Postural Correction Approaches

What this Trial Is About

Anterior pelvic tilt APT is a common postural issue where the pelvis tilts forward excessively, often linked to increased lower back curve and non-specific low back pain NSLBP. NSLBP affects many people worldwide and results from factors like poor posture, muscle imbalances, and sedentary lifestyle. This research aims to compare different physiotherapy treatments for APT in people with NSLBP to find the best ways to reduce pain and improve function and quality of life. The study is a randomized controlled trial that divides participants into four groups receiving different treatments core stability exercises combined with electrotherapy, soft tissue release with manual therapy and stretching, postural correction exercises with contrast therapy hot and cold packs, and a control group receiving electrotherapy with stretching and flexibility exercises. Each treatment focuses on improving muscle balance, posture, and pain relief over a 4-week period. Participants will be adults aged 20 to 40 diagnosed with NSLBP and confirmed APT. They will undergo assessments at the start, middle, and end of the treatment, measuring pelvic tilt angle, pain levels using a numeric scale, quality of life questionnaires, and functional capacity including range of motion and muscle strength. The study also monitors balance and overall effects of the therapies to identify which intervention best helps improve symptoms and daily function.
