This study will be a randomized clinical trial. Subjects with postpartum low back pain meeting the predetermined inclusion and exclusion criteria will divide into two groups. Pre-assessment will be done using the Numeric Pain Rating Scale & Roland-Morris Questionnaire as subjective measurements. Subjects in one group will be treated with assisted sit-up exercise and the other will be treated with swiss ball pikes. Each subject will receive a total of 12 treatment sessions, with 2 treatment sessions per week. Post-treatment reading for numeric pain rating scale and Roland-Morris questionnaire will be recorded after the end of the 4th, 8th, and 12th treatment session.
The aim of this study is to evaluate and compare the effectiveness of assisted sit-up exercise and swiss ball pikes on the treatment of pain and disability of postpartum low back pain. The current study will compare the use of assisted sit-up exercise and swiss ball pikes. The current study is novel in a way that there is limited literature about treating postpartum low back pain with physical strengthening exercises. These two methods will be employed to see if they improve ranges along with accompanying pain and disability.
