Abstract
Objective: The study was conducted for evaluating the effectiveness of muscle energy
technique in chronic SIJ dysfunction.
Methods: 30 patients with chronic sacroiliac joint dysfunction from both genders.
Patients were divided into 2 groups 15 in each group . Group A: received muscle
energy technique using post isometric relaxation technique to erector spinae,
hamstrings, iliopsoas, and quadratus lumborum plus conventional treatment
program. Group B: control group received a conventional treatment program only
.Doppler imaging of vibration, palpation meter, and visual analog scale was
utilized for evaluating patients (pre and post-treatment).
Results: The study findings revealed a statistically significant decrease in anterior
pelvic tilting angle in group A (p < 0.001), also a significant decrease in pain in the
2 groups compared with pre-intervention values(p < 0.001) .
Conclusion: The muscle energy technique is an effective treatment for decreasing
anterior pelvic tilting angle and reducing pain in patients with chronic sacroiliac
joint dysfunction.
