Detailed Summary
The study will be done to evaluate the effectiveness of Lumbar Spinal Decompression in patients with acute vs chronic lumbar radiculopathy. Study design will be Randomized control trial and sample size will be 30. Duration of study was of 6 month, convenient sampling was done. Data will be collected from DHQ Daska were randomly allocated in three groups via lottery method, baseline assessment was done. Patients of both gender (male and female) from 18 to 50 years with lumbar radiculopathy diagnosed through X-ray and physical examination will be included. Patients with systemic soft tissue and bony diseases will be excluded. Intervention duration of 4 weeks, 3 sessions in a week. Decompression of lumbar spine will be given once in a week. Whole procedure of treatment program will given to patients and written informed consent will be taken. Basic tools will be Visual analog scale (VAS), SLR, ODI, Inclinometer.

Timeline
Interventions
Group A which includes the acute group to study the effects of decompression we will apply the three main basic treatments along with decompression which is our main goal.. The basic treatments are 1. Hot Pack 2. TENSE 3. Mobilization ( on lumbar L1 toL5 ) Our first modality which is hot pack will be given to the patients for a duration of 15 minutes The next modality TENSE will be given for 10 minutes The third treatment which is mobilization will be given 1 time on each joint of lumbar spine All these treatments must given in combination with the decompression.
Group B which includes the chronic group to study the effects of decompression we will apply the three main basic treatments along with decompression which is our main goal.. The basic treatments are 1. Hot Pack 2. TENSE 3. Mobilization ( on lumbar L1 toL5 ) Our first modality which is hot pack will be given to the patients for a duration of 15 minutes The next modality TENSE will be given for 10 minutes The third treatment which is mobilization will be given 1 time on each joint of lumbar spine All these treatments must given in combination with the decompression.
Group C which is our control group to compare it with the groups A and B to study the effects of decompression on lumbar radiculopathy The basic treatments are 1. Hot Pack 2. TENSE 3. Mobilization ( on lumbar L1 toL5 ) Our first modality which is hot pack will be given to the patients for a duration of 15 minutes The next modality TENSE will be given for 10 minutes The third treatment which is mobilization will be given 1 time on each joint of lumbar spine It is kept in mind that in this group we will not apply the decompression along with the above treatments.
