Brief summary

The purpose of this study is to determine the effect of cavitation ultrasonic lipolysis, RUSI guided core muscle exercise and their combination (cavitation ultrasonic lipolysis and RUSI guided core muscles exercise) on diaphragmatic excursion, transverse abdominis activation ratio, visceral fat thickness and waist circumference in patients with visceral adiposity patients with visceral adiposity will be recognized by nutrition specialist. 45 patients were distributed randomly into three groups. The first group will be treated with Cavitation lipolysis twice weekly. The second group was treated with rehabilitative ultrasound imaging (RUSI) guided core muscle exercise. The third group was treated with combination of cavitation and RUSI. patients will be examined with medical ultrasound imaging and tape measurement.

Detailed description

\- Inclusion criteria: Forty five subjects participated in this study. Age of participants ranged from 25 to 45 years. 3. Waist circumference was more than 102 cm for men and 88 cm for women 4. Body mass index (BMI) ranged from 25 to 29.9 (Kg / m2). 5. Subjects hadn't received drugs Exclusion criteria: 1. history of spinal surgery or spinal fracture. 2. Serious diseases, such as heart disease, kidney, liver diseases, gastric ulcer or duodenal ulcer. 3. A history of bronchial asthma or any chest disease. 4. Uncontrolled diabetes or hypertension. 5. Patients with peacemaker or any metal implant on the treated area. 6. Cancer or patient with past history of tumor excision
