Treatment and study plan

standard physical therapy treatment

Other

group B was given hot pack for 10min to reduce pain and promote tissue relaxation followed by stretching of the superficial and coccygeal muscles around the pelvis and lower back performed 3 times for 30 sec each.

Maitland Mobilization and lumbopelvic coordination

Other

group A received maitland mobilization technique 3 times per week which aimed to reduce pain and improve overall mobility and function . Intervention involve streching the hip flexors muscles (ilipsoas, rectus femoris ,sartorius) performed as 2sets of 30seconds. strengthening exercises such as pelvic tilts and bridges were performed using 3 sets of 10 repetitions.

Primary outcomes

  1. numeric pain scale

    Time frame: from enrollment to 4 sessions per week for total duration of 4 week

    the scale was used to determine the patient level of pain . the range of this scale is from 0 to 10. no pain is represented by ''O"'and worst pain is represented by ''10''.

  2. inclinometer

    Time frame: from enrollment to 4 sessions per week to total duration of 4 weeks.

    The range of motion will be measured using inclinometer that has an inter-rater reliability (ICC2,2 = 0.92 to 0.96) and in case of coccydynia, the range of motion will be assessed in the sacroiliac joint, lumbar spine and pelvic region

  3. SF 36 questionnaire

    Time frame: from enrollement to 4 sessions per week for total duration of 4 weeks.

    One of the most widely used tools for assessing health-related quality of life is the 36-item Short Form Health Survey (SF-36). Physical functioning (10 items), physical role limitations (4 items),bodily pain (2 items), general health perceptions (5 items), energy/vitality (4 items), social functioning (2 items), and emotional role limitations (3 items) are the eight domains of health status that are measured by the 36-item SF-36 scale
