Abstract

Non-specific low back pain does not have a known pathoanatomical cause. It affects humankind of all ages and is a leading benefactor to disease worry worldwide. In this case study, we describe the effectiveness of basic body awareness in terms of pain relief and improved functional aptitude in 22 year old male patient with non specific low backache. Further, we believe that basic body awareness therapy can be considered as one of the therapeutic option in the management of chronic nonspecific low back pain.

Keywords: physical therapy, basic body awareness, chronic non specific low back pain and phonophoresis.
