About this trial

This study sought to determine the effect of Pilates exercises versus segmental control exercises on spinopelvic angles, pain intensity, and functional disability in patients with chronic non-specific low back pain.

Eligibility criteria

This trial does not accept healthy volunteers

Qualifiers

Age group: 18 to 65 years. (Yentür et al., 2021)

Both male and female gender will be included in the study. (Akhtar et al., 2017)

Spinopelvic angles consists of (Sacral slope, lumber lordosis, pelvic incidence, and pelvic tilt) from the X-ray picture of the lateral view of the lumbosacral region by using CorelDraw graphic suits X7 software program. (Bhosale et al.2020)

Time frame
6 weeks

Secondary outcomes

1

Pain intensity

Pain intensity by using a Visual analogue scale (VAS). (Begum, and Hossain 2019)

Time frame
6 weeks
2

Functional disability

Functional disability by using the Oswestry disability questionnaire. (Koivunen et al., 2024)

Time frame
