Read the detailed description
The study design is randomized controlled trial.The interventions were carried out twice a week for three weeks with each session lasting approximately 20 min.Group A contains 34 patients and received STM focusing on mobilizing soft tissue to enhance circulation reduce scar tissue and improve functional flexibility.Group B received both STM and stretching twice a week for three weeks with each session lasting approximately 20 min.During entire treatment the therapist kept close eye on patient discomfort.The significance of the study lies in it's potential to enhance more effective non invasive treatment to alleviate symptoms

What participants receive
What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.
StretchingDiagnostic test
The group A contains 34 patients and received STM for twice a week for three weeks with each session lasting approximately 20 min.focusing on mobilizing soft tissue to enhance circulation, reduce scar tissue and improve tissue flexibility.
Soft Tissue MobilizationCombination product
Group B received both STM and stretching twice a week for three weeks with each session lasting approximately 20 min.encourage the patient to breathe deeply and slowly to promote relaxation.The stretching of tight muscles 1 set of 10 repetitions hold of 5 second of each exercise,then breathing for 1 min

What is being measured
The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.
NUMERIC PAIN RATING SCALE(NPRS)
The Numeric Pain Rating Scale (NPRS) is a widely used, 11-point scale (0-10) for measuring pain intensity, with 0 representing "no pain" and 10 representing "worst pain imaginable
Measured: 12 Months
Oswestry Disability Index (ODI)
The Oswestry Disability Index (ODI) scores disability levels related to low back pain on a scale of 0 to 100, with 0 indicating no disability and 100 representing the highest level of disability
Measured: 12 Months

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.
Who may be eligible to take part?
The sponsor lists 4 inclusion and 5 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.
Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?
The record says: under way, not looking for participants, as of the sponsor's last update on 6 Apr 2025. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.
Where is the study taking place?
The record lists 1 site in Pakistan. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.
What are the possible benefits and risks?
They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.
Are results available for this study?
This study is still under way. Results are not available in the source record yet.
How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?
The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.
What does the primary outcome measure?
NUMERIC PAIN RATING SCALE(NPRS) (time frame: 12 Months). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.
Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?
No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.
How often is this information updated?
AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 6 Apr 2025.
