Background: This study aimed to the effects of hip mobilization on pain, trunk flexibility, function for chronic low back pain patients.
Methods: Patients were randomly assigned to control group (n=15) and experimental group (n=15). Both groups received conventional physical therapy, three times a week for four weeks. Experimental group was performed additional hip mobilization, three times a week for four weeks. All measurement of each subject were measured at pre-intervention and post-intervention (after 4 weeks).
Results: Assessed items included the visual analog scale score (VAS), Korean version of the Oswestry disability Index (KODI) a significant reduction was observed post intervention compared to pre-intervention values in both group (p<.01). Trunk flexibility was significant increased post intervention compared to pre-intervention values in both group (p<.01). There were significant difference between two groups in VAS (p<.01), trunk flexibility (p<.05) and except KODI.
Conclusions: Our results indicate that conventional physical therapy with the hip mobilization may be useful for improving chronic low back pain patient.
