Time frame: from enrollment to 4 sessions per week for total duration of 4 week
inclinometer
The range of motion will be measured using inclinometer that has an inter-rater reliability (ICC2,2 = 0.92 to 0.96) and in case of coccydynia, the range of motion will be assessed in the sacroiliac joint, lumbar spine and pelvic region
Time frame: from enrollment to 4 sessions per week to total duration of 4 weeks.
SF 36 questionnaire
