Summary

this study will be conducted to investigate the effect of different diaphragmatic myofascial release approaches on low back pain and quality of life among young females with irritable bowel syndrome

Detailed description

Irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) is a functional gastrointestinal disorder linked to disruptions in autonomic nervous system regulation, gut inflammation, alterations in stool frequency, and visceral hypersensitivity. Irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) is a chronic condition affects 7 to 21% of the general population.The symptoms usually include abdominal cramping, discomfort or pain, bloating, loose or frequent stools and constipation.The diaphragm has a fundamental role in defining posture, its maintenance, and body position changes; dysfunction of the diaphragm is one of the recognized be causes of low back and sacroiliac joint pain. People with low back pain often experience early fatigue of the diaphragm muscle, altered and reduced excursion during respiration, and inadequate proprioceptive activation.

Conditions

• Irritable Bowel Syndrome

Interventions

Type	Name	Description
OTHER	Diaphragmatic Myofascial Release	six technique will be applied; 1-Diaphragmatic transverse plane, 2-Anteroposterior equilibrium technique, 3-Supra and infrahyoid fascial induction, 4-Psoas fascial induction,5-Diaphragm stretching technique and 6-Phrenic centre inhibition. diaphragmatic breathing, Mobilization of the ascending colon, descending colon, sigmoid colon, and sphincters (cardiac, pyloric, Oddi, duodenojejunal and ileocecal) with the patient in the supine position, knees flexed, feet supported and abdomen exposed. Contact was made with the region to be treated, leading it in the direction of immobility, with pressure maintained for one minute on each region with intensity based on the sensitivity to tension observed on the feedback of the individual plus medication
OTHER	visceral mobilization techniques	Mobilization of the ascending colon, descending colon, sigmoid colon, and sphincters (cardiac, pyloric, Oddi, duodenojejunal and ileocecal) with the patient in the supine position, knees flexed, feet supported and abdomen exposed. Contact was made with the region to be treated, leading it in the direction of immobility, with pressure maintained for one minute on each region with intensity based on the sensitivity to tension observed on the feedback of the individual plus medication
OTHER	irritable bowel syndrome medication	the patients will receive irritable bowel syndrome medication
