Effects Of Vacuum Controlled Static Versus Vacuum Controlled Dynamic Dry Cupping On Pain, Range Of Motion And Disability Among Patients With Chronic Low Back Pain
Conditions: Chronic Low-back Pain (cLBP)
Sex: All
Ages: 30 Years – 40 Years
Healthy volunteers: No
Phase: NA
Enrollment: 48
Sponsor: Lahore University of Biological and Applied Sciences
Location: Sehat Medical Complex Lahore Punjab Province
Summary
This randomized controlled clinical trial aims to compare the effects of vacuum-controlled static dry cupping and vacuum-controlled dynamic dry cupping on pain intensity, lumbar range of motion, and functional disability in patients with chronic low back pain. Participants will be randomly assigned to two groups receiving either static or dynamic dry cupping along with conventional treatment. The outcomes will be assessed to determine which cupping technique is more effective in improving pain, mobility, and functional ability in individuals with chronic low back pain.
\[Time Frame: Measured at baseline (pre-intervention) and after 6 weeks (post-intervention completion).
