Intervention / Comparator Agent  
Type  Name  Details 
Intervention  dynamic neuromuscular stabilisation  Rehabilitation initially addresses the stabilization of the trunk and integrated spinal stabilization system. The core must be able to brace before movement though stabilization generally is subconscious and automatic and as a result, easily compromised and difficult to retrain. First, the patient will be taught to recognize the feeling of the right position versus the compromised stabilization. This is followed by the ability to hold the optimal stabilization posture in different positions and finally during movement. (Kobesova A et al 2014) it includes 1. Neutral Chest Position and Correct Breathing Stereotype: 2. Supine 3-month position 3. Prone 3-month position 4. Side lying 5-month position 5. 7-month oblique sitting position with forearm support 6. 8-month, all fours (quadruped) position:  
Comparator Agent  lumbar stabilisation  Group b received conventional lumbar stabilization exercises along with a Moist heat pack for 15 minutes before the treatment. Exercise includes: 1. Spinal isometrics exercise 2. Bridge - In the prone position, the participant flexed both knees and elevated the pelvis to align with the thighs. 3. Superman: In the prone position, the participant raised both arms and legs. 4. Bird dog: Starting from a four-legged pose, participants lifted one arm and extended the opposite leg parallel to the floor. After maintaining this position for 5 seconds, they repeated the movement on the other side.

Brief Summary  

This study Aims to see the Effects of dynamic neuromuscular stabilization on balance ability, pain, respiratory function, and disability in patients suffering from low back pain secondary to PIVD.The study utilized a Pretest Posttest Control group design over a 4-week period at the Physiotherapy OPD of SGT Medical College, hospital, and research institute in Gurugram, Delhi, NCR. Ethical approval was obtained from the Departmental Ethical Committee of the Faculty of Physiotherapy at SGT University. A sample size of 33 patients, including a 10% dropout rate, was calculated using G power version, with participants selected through convenience sampling for easy accessibility. Inclusion criteria comprised individuals aged 18-60, clinically diagnosed with PIVD, experiencing lower back pain (NPRS 5 and above), and non-smokers, while exclusion criteria included those with a history of spinal surgery, specific diagnoses, pregnancy or early postpartum period, breathing disorders, and incompletely worked-up cases. Dependent variables encompassed pain, balance ability, respiratory function, and disability, while the independent variable was Dynamic Neuromuscular Stabilization.
