Back pain is one of the major problems in women around the world and nearly 80% of people have experienced it at least once in their lifetime. Urinary incontinence is also one of the most important problems in women, which is usually associated with back pain. Therefore, the aim of this study was to evaluate the effect and compare eight weeks of Kegel exercises and stability exercises on pain relief, urinary incontinence in women with urinary incontinence and back pain.

In this quasi-experimental study and its design was a two-group study with pretest and posttest. For this purpose, 45 women with urinary incontinence and low back pain were randomly selected in 3 equal groups of 15 experimental (Kegel and stability) and control. In order to evaluate the factors of functional disability, quality of life and urinary incontinence, the ossoster questionnaire, quality of life questionnaire and urinary incontinence diagnosis form were used, respectively. Both experimental groups performed Kegel and stability exercises (3 sessions of 30 to 45 minutes per week) for 8 weeks. The control group did not perform any exercises during this period. Analysis of covariance at the significance level of (p≤0/05) was used to analyze the data.

According to these findings Both Kegel exercises and stability exercises had a significant effect on on functional disability, quality of life and urinary incontinence in women with stress urinary incontinence and back pain (P≤0.05). Conducting a between-group comparison also showed that which was related to the stability exercises and Kegel exercises, respectively (P≤0.05).

According to these findings, stability exercises provided greater recuperation than Kegel exercises in women with urinary incontinence and back pain. However, further studies with a larger sample size are recommended to support the findings of the present study and to help prevent women with urinary incontinence and back pain

Therapeutic exercises are regarded as one of most important therapeutic interventions for patients with chronic low back pain. Stabilization exercises are among the most practical ones for these patients. Effects of these exercises on psychological factors associated with pain and consequential functional disabilities are still remained unknown. The purpose of this study was to assess the effect of stabilization exercises on fear of pain, movement and disability in patients with low back pain. Twenty one patients with recurrent non-specific low back pain (14 in experimental, 7 in control group) were participated in this study. The scores for fear of pain, fear of movement and disability were recorded in the questionnaires. The experimental group performed isolated abdominal hollowing and bracing exercises in three sets of ten for each with two minutes rest between each repeat. Patients performed exercises with the use of pressure biofeedback and under the supervision of a physiotherapist in different positions including supine, sitting on a chair, standing still and standing with rapid arm raises with maximum acceleration once a day and for 20 sessions. The variables studied in this research were evaluated in both experimental and control groups after training sessions. Performing the stabilization exercises did not affect the fear-avoidance belief (P >0.05), while decreased the disability associated with back pain (P=0.01). This study showed that the psychological fears associated with pain in patients with recurrent non-specific low back pain, which also leads to continuity of back pain cannot be alleviated by performing stabilization exercises.

Aims and The purpose of this study was to investigate the short-term effects of massage، stability and combination exercise on dynamic stability in patients with chronic non-specific low back pain during the sitting to standing task. In this study، 30 patients with chronic low back pain with an average age of 33. 44±9. 02 years participated. Patients were randomly divided into three groups of ten: massage، stability and combination exercises. Patients received protocols of massage، stability، and combination exercises for 12 sessions (4 weeks، on every other day) under supervision of therapists. The results of this study showed that after stabilization and combination exercises، there was significant difference between pre and post test in Rising Index and COG Sway Velocity variables. The results showed that combination of massage with stability exercise is more effective than using either one alone.

Aim and The purpose of this study was to compare the effects of massage therapy, stability exercise and combination exercise on improvement of chronic low back pain Methods and Materials: In this study, 30 patients with chronic low back pain with an average age of 33.44±9.02 years participated. Patients were randomly divided into three groups: massage, stability and combination. The protocol consisted of training for 8 weeks, three days a week and each session was about an hour.Patients for 12 sessions (4 weeks, or every other day), protocols massage, stability exercises and combination with supervision therapists received. The results of this study showed that the studied methods significantly (P<0.05) decreased the pain and improved function compared to the pre-test. Also significant difference was observed between groups (P<0.05). the results showed that stabilization training combined with massage therapy is more effective than using each alone.

Functional instability of the lumbar spine is one of the most common disorders that occurs as a consequence of the weakness of lumbar paravertebral muscles. This type of instability can progressively produce low back pain and inability in daily living activities. To treat this type of low back pain, different methods of treatment and therapeutic exercises have been proposed, including stability exercises and medical training therapy (MTT). The aim of this study was to compare the two above-mentioned treatment methods on reducing clinical signs and symptoms of lumbar instability. In this survey, fifty patients with chronic lumbar instability and pain were selected and treated with either medical training or stability exercises. Thirty patients had stability exercises in their daily activities and twenty patients were treated using MTT protocol. Clinical signs and symptoms were evaluated before and after treatment sessions. This study showed that there was no significant difference between our two experimental groups before and after treatment sessions in all evaluated parameters (p<0.05). In addition a significant improvement in evaluated signs and symptoms was observed in both experimental groups. The results of this study suggest that stability exercise and MTT can reduce pain and other symptoms with a similar effect in patients suffering from functional lumbar instability.
