Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| numeric pain scale | from enrollment to 4 sessions per week for total duration of 4 week | the scale was used to determine the patient level of pain . the range of this scale is from 0 to 10. no pain is represented by ''O"'and worst pain is represented by ''10''. |
| inclinometer | from enrollment to 4 sessions per week to total duration of 4 weeks. | 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 |
| SF 36 questionnaire | from enrollement to 4 sessions per week for total duration of 4 weeks. | One of the most widely used tools for assessing health-related quality of life is the 36-item Short Form Health Survey (SF-36). Physical functioning (10 items), physical role limitations (4 items),bodily pain (2 items), general health perceptions (5 items), energy/vitality (4 items), social functioning (2 items), and emotional role limitations (3 items) are the eight domains of health status that are measured by the 36-item SF-36 scale |
