Arms and Interventions

| Participant Group/Arm | Intervention/Treatment |
| --- | --- |
| Active Comparator: Myofascial Release<br>Group A (Myofascial release technique) on low back 3 repetitions (30 second rest between reps), lasting for 30 s for each myofascial track for 1 set to targeted muscles (plantar fascia, gastrocnemius, hamstrings, and erector spinae). The position will be held for 10-15 seconds when a pain point is found lacrosse ball excellent for this type of massage because their surface area is much less than that of foam rollers. | Other: Myofascial Release technique<br>* on low back 3 repetitions (30 second rest between reps), lasting for 30 s for each myofascial track for 1 set to targeted muscles (plantar fascia, gastrocnemius, hamstrings, and erector spinae). The position will be held for 10-15 seconds when a pain point is found lacrosse ball excellent for this type of massage because their surface area is much less than that of foam rollers.<br>* Other names: Myofascial Release technique for chronic non specific low back pain;|
| Active Comparator: Post facilitation stretch<br>Group B (Post facilitation stretch) static stretching exercises for the low back (plantar fascia, gastrocnemius, hamstrings, and erector spinae). Static stretching involved 3 sets of 3 repetitions for each muscle with a 30-second hold and 30-second rest interval for each repetition. | Other: Post facilitation stretch .<br>* static stretching exercises for the low back (plantar fascia, gastrocnemius, hamstrings, and erector spinae). Static stretching involved 3 sets of 3 repetitions for each muscle with a 30-second hold and 30-second rest interval for each repetition.<br>* Other names: Post facilitation stretch for chronic non specific low back pain.;|

What is the study measuring?
-----------------
Primary Outcome Measures

| Outcome Measure | Measure Description | Time Frame |
| --- | --- | --- |
| . Numeric pain rating scale | NPRS is based on 11 points numerical rating scale for determining pain intensity, 0 ( no ;pain), 10 (worst pain imaginable). | 4 weeks | 

Secondary Outcome Measures

| Outcome Measure | Measure Description | Time Frame |
| --- | --- | --- |
| Inclinometer | This instrument can measure Flexion, Extension, lateral flexion; a full range of tests ensures the best results. The Baseline Inclinometer is designed with your needs in mind; whether you need it for home or your professional clinic | 4 weeks |
