Overview

Effect Of Maitland Mobilization On Selected Gait Kinetic And Kinematic Parameters In Patients With Lumbosacral Radiculopathy

This study was conducted to answer the following question: Is there is an effect of Maitland mobilization on gait kinetic and kinematic changes in patients with lumbosacral radiculopathy? Purpose of the study: This study was conducted to * Investigate the effect of Maitland mobilization on gait kinetic and kinematic changes in patients with lumbosacral radiculopathy. * Investigate the effect of Maitland mobilization on electromyographic activity of trunk muscles in patients with lumbosacral radiculopathy. * Investigate the effect of Maitland mobilization on pain in patients with lumbosacral radiculopathy. * Investigate the effect of Maitland mobilization disability in patients with lumbosacral radiculopathy.
