Abstract The purpose of this study was to detect the effect of core muscle stability and neural mobilization in post laminectomy syndrome. Methods; forty five patients with post laminectomy syndrome were randomly assigned into three equal groups. Study groups (GA), (GB) and control group(GC) .The patients in (GA) received core muscle stability and selected physical therapy, and in (GB) received neural mobilization for sciatic nerve and the same selected physical therapy, while patients in control group (GC) received only selected physical therapy. The assessment include pain intensity by Numerical Pain Rating Scale, muscle cross section area by Ultrasonography, and lumbar ROM by Digital Inclinometer and were evaluated pre and post four weeks of treatment for all groups.Results: showed that there were significant improvement in cross section area and thus segmental control and also improvement in pain intensity in study groups only with only clinical improvement in ROM in three groups.Conclusion: the core muscle stability was effective in post laminectomy syndrome |
