Abstract ABSTRACT

Background: Lumbar spondylosis is a frequent degenerative disorder of the lumbar spine characterized by disc degeneration, the development of osteophyte, and arthritis of the facet joints, potentially resulting in low back pain, stiffness, and compression of nerve roots. Physiotherapy is essential in management, utilizing extension-focused and core stability exercises to alleviate pain, enhance spinal mobility, and regain function. Spiral chain workouts improve postural stability, dynamic control, and neuromuscular coordination, correcting muscle imbalances and enhancing functional movements.

Case Description and Intervention: A six-week physiotherapy regimen comprising lumbar traction, core stabilization, flexion-based exercises, spiral chain exercises, and modalities was administered to a 65-year-old male patient with L4–L5 degenerative alterations.

Results: Improved lumbar mobility and functional performance were accompanied by a considerable reduction in pain (VAS 7–8/10 to 2–4/10).

Conclusion, spiral chain exercises combined with physical therapy may successfully lessen lumbar spondylosis discomfort and enhance function.
