| Abstract | ||||
| This study aims to determine the effect of a rehabilitation program using dynamic neuromuscular stabilization (DNS) exercises on lower back pain for female gymnasts. Method: The experimental method was used for the sample under study and pre- and post-measurements were conducted on it. The study was conducted on a sample of 10 female artistic gymnasts 14-15 years old at Alex-Olympic Club. The sample was chosen intentionally and placed in an equal group according to the basic variables and physical tests. The rehabilitation program was implemented 4 sessions per week for 10 weeks, and data was collected before and after the rehabilitation program. Results: The rehabilitation program helped increase internal abdominal pressure (IAP) and activate the integrated spinal stabilizing system (ISSS), which reducing lower back pain for female gymnasts. This was demonstrated by the results of the numerical pain assessment scale, the modified oswestry disability questionnaire, fear avoidance beliefs questionnaire, breath holding time during inspiration and Expiration, respiratory rate, and back muscle strength (P< 0.05). Conclusion: It is suggested that DNS is necessary to reduce lower back pain in female gymnasts and improve back muscle strength. | ||||
