Compares treatment options for Anterior Pelvic Tilt
Official title Comparing Different Physiotherapy Interventions on APT in Non Specific Low Back Pain
ClinicalTrials.gov ID: NCT07098741
What this study is testing
- What it's testing
- Anterior pelvic tilt (APT) is a prevalent postural deviation characterized by excessive forward rotation of the pelvis, often resulting in increased lumbar lordosis. This condition is frequently associated with non-specific low back pain (NSLBP), which affects a significant portion of the global population and poses substantial challenges for individuals' well-being and healthcare systems worldwide.
