Intervention / Comparator Agent  
Type  Name  Details 
Intervention  Dynamic neuromuscular stabilization  Dynamic Neuromuscular Stabilization (DNS) is a comprehensive rehabilitation approach developed by Professor Pavel Kolar, rooted in the principles of developmental kinesiology. It focuses on optimizing the bodys movement system by enhancing the coordination and function of intrinsic spinal stabilizers, which are crucial for maintaining core stability and overall body funct total 8 weeks intervention will be planned, 3 sessions each week. phase 1: basic exercises (2 weeks) phase 2: Advanced Exercises: Higher Postural (Developmental) Positions (3 weeks) phase 3: advanced dynamic functional positions (3 weeks)  
Comparator Agent  EDUCATION  Diaphragmatic breathing exercise, resistance exercise of larger muscle group of upper and lower extremity, aerobic activity (brisk walk)

Brief Summary  

Functional mobility is the ability to move freely and efficiently in daily activities. Core strength plays a vital role in maintaining proper functional mobility. Weak core muscles can lead to poor posture, decreased balance, and difficulty performing movements like walking, climbing stairs, or transitioning between positions. Functional mobility and balance are crucial components of an individual’s quality of life. Decreased mobility and balance can lead to reduced independence, increased risk of falls, and difficulty performing daily tasks. This can negatively impact mental health, social interactions, and overall well-being.

High prevalence rates of musculoskeletal disorders highlight the need for effective interventions to address it in adult Indian women. Dynamic Neuromuscular Stabilization (DNS) can be a promising approach to improve functional mobility, balance, core strength and overall quality of life and reducing musculoskeletal distress by targeting the underlying neuromuscular dysfunctions and restoring optimal movement patterns.

Hypothesis: 

 DNS has significant positive impact in improving functional mobility, functional balance, core and quality of life in young Indian women.
