Interventions
OTHER

Experimental interventional group A, (MET).

10-minute hot pack application, followed by MET on the Quadratus Lumborum (3 repetitions with a 7-second hold). Flexibility exercises include William flexion with bilateral knee-to-chest stretches (10-second hold, repeated 10 times) and static stretching of the hamstrings, gastrocnemius, and iliotibial band (5 repetitions with a 5-second hold). Strengthening exercises comprise isometric hip flexor activation (5 repetitions with a 15-second hold), side planks (3 repetitions with a 30-second hold), and static side bending (5 repetitions with a 10-second hold). The intervention will be performed once daily, consisting of 3 sets per session, continued for 4 weeks to enhance flexibility, core stability, and muscular balance, ultimately contributing to pain relief and improved functional mobility in CLBP patients

Control: group B (conventional intervention exercises)

10-minute hot pack application, followed by William flexion with bilateral knee-to-chest stretches (10-second hold, repeated 10 times). Flexibility exercises consist of static stretching for the hamstrings, gastrocnemius, and iliotibial band (5 repetitions with a 5-second hold). Strengthening exercises include isometric hip flexor activation (5 repetitions with a 15-second hold), side planks (3 repetitions with a 30-second hold), and static side bending (5 repetitions with a 10-second hold). The protocol will be performed once daily, with 3 sets per session, continued for 4 weeks to improve flexibility, core stability, and pain management in CLBP patients.
