Therapeutic Impact of KT Along With BT in Patients With Chronic Low Back Pain of Sacroiliac Joint Dysfunction

Therapeutic Impact of Kinesio Taping Along With Balance Training in Patients With Chronic Low Back Pain of Sacroiliac Joint Dysfunction:A Randomized Control Study

This research aimed to determine the impacts of KT and balance exercises in patients with CLBP of SIJ dysfunction.

The study will be based on a two-arm parallel group randomized control design. thirty participants of CLBP of SIJ Dysfunction will be recruited from the Physiotherapy department, at Integral University, India. Study objectives and procedure will be properly explained and written informed consent will be obtained at the beginning of the study. All the participants will be randomly divided into two groups A and B. Experimental group A will receive the hot pack, Stretching exercise, and Kinesio taping along with balance training (KBT), and group B will receive the hot pack, Stretching exercise, and Balance training (BT) exercise
