Description

This study is aimed to evaluate the effect of Dynamic Neuromuscular Stabilization (DNS) exercises combined with core strengthening exercises in young adults aged 18-25. The prevalence of non-specific low back pain has increased among undergraduate students due to prolonged daily sitting, which leads to decreased flexibility and core muscle endurance. Factors such as individual psychological, anatomical, biomechanical structure, weak strength and endurance of trunk, and decreased flexibility in trunk musculature contribute to non-specific low backache Based on infantile motor patterns, DNS exercises emphasize natural movement patterns to enhance core stability, improve postural control, and reduce pain during both dynamic and static tasks. In this program, participants will learn how to activate deep core muscles and maintain intra-abdominal pressure to train natural movement patterns and improve function. Participants will perform these exercises three times a week for a duration of four weeks.

Various studies in literature including randomized controlled trials reported that DNS along other conventional physiotherapy exercises can reduce pain, disability, quality of life, flexibility of hamstring, balance, abdominal muscle strength in patients with non-specific low backache.

Therefore this study is aimed to see effect of dynamic neuromuscular stabilizaion exercises compared to conservative traetment on pain, endurance and flexibility, which are contributing factors to non-specific low back pain (NSLBP).
