Abstract

Pain is a process which can affect the individual physically, emotionally, psychologically, socially, occupationally and in many other ways. Knowledge of mechanical low back pain disorders has matured beyond past that all back pain is from the intervertebral disc or the zygopophyseal joints or is myofascial in nature, or that we have only an isolated injury. If we can identify the offending forces, especially during a patients activities of daily living, and minimize these forces while allowing the person to stay active, then the healing process will more readily occur. In effect one of the goals of treatment for any mechanical injury to provide an optimal healing environment. In an effort to find out the effectiveness of myofascial trigger point release technique on relieving pain in mechanical low back pain20 subjects were selected by using non-probability purposive random sampling technique and assigned into two groups with 10 subjects each. Group A was treated with TENS and active spinal exercises and group B was treated with trigger point release technique and tens for a period of 10 days.
