Purpose: This study investigated the effects of lumbosacral joint mobilization on dysmenorrhea and premenstrualsyndrome and the correlation between these conditions and the lumbosacral joint.
Methods: The study enrolled 24 women with menstrual cramps who met the selection criteria. Twenty-one daysfrom the start of menstruation, lumbosacral joint mobilization was applied for 4?5 seconds with five repetitionsfor a total of 20 seconds. To a 5 times to 1set it was performed to 3set. The differences in visual analog scale(VAS) and modified menstrual distress questionnaire (MMDQ) scores of the subjects after lumbosacral jointmobilization were assessed using paired t tests, and the correlations were analyzed using Pearson correlationcoefficients.
Results: Dysmenorrhea and premenstrual syndrome showed statistically significant differences and correlationsat the 0.01 level after the application of lumbosacral joint mobilization (p<0.001).
Conclusion: The results of this study confirmed that lumbosacral joint mobilization was effective for dysmenorrheaand premenstrual syndrome and demonstrated a correlation between dysmenorrhea, premenstrual syndrome,and lumbosacral joint angle. These results suggest that mobilization of the lumbosacral joint may have a positiveeffect on pain reduction for women with dysmenorrhea and may be more effective to reduce abnormal pelvicalignment.
