About this study
Official title: Comparing The Effects of Gong's Mobilization and Jone's Positional Release for Sacroiliac Joint Dysfunction.
This study aims to compare the efficacy of Gong's mobilization and Jones's positional release technique in individuals with sacroiliac joint dysfunction.
Read the detailed description
The study was designed as a randomized controlled trial involving 30 participants diagnosed with sacroiliac joint dysfunction. Participants were randomly divided into two equal groups of 15 using a lottery method. Group A underwent Gong's mobilization, whereas Group B received Jones's positional release technique. In addition, both groups were provided with baseline treatment, including TENS and stretching exercises. Each intervention was carried out three times per week for a duration of six weeks.

What participants receive
What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.
Gong's mobilizationOther
A pain-free, sustained glide is applied to the sacroiliac joint by the therapist. The patient simultaneously performs active movements.
Jone's positional releaseOther
The therapist identifies a tender point. The patient is positioned in a way that reduces pain significantly. This position is held for about 90 seconds and the patient is then slowly returned to a neutral position.
| Study group | Role | What they receive |
|---|---|---|
| Gong's mobilization | Experimental | A pain-free, sustained glide is applied to the sacroiliac joint by the therapist. The patient simultaneously performs active movements. Receives: Other: Gong's mobilization |
| Jone's positional release | Experimental | The therapist identifies a tender point. The patient is positioned in a way that reduces pain significantly. This position is held for about 90 seconds and the patient is then slowly returned to a neutral position. Receives: Other: Jone's positional release |
What is being measured
The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.
Modified Oswestry Low Back Pain Disability Questionnaire
The Modified Oswestry Low Back Pain Disability Questionnaire is a gold-standard tool used to measure a patient's functional disability level resulting from low back pain.
Measured: 6 weeks
Visual Analogue Scale
The Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) is used to measure pain intensity. The VAS typically consists of a 100 mm (10 cm) horizontal line where zero means no pain and ten indicates worst possible pain.
Measured: 6 weeks
