Conventional treatment: Application of ultrasound and transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation "TENS" for mechanical low back pain.
Open chain segmental control: Application of "open chain segmental control exercises" As well as, application of ultrasound and transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation "TENS" for mechanical low back pain.
Closed chain segmental control: Application of "closed chain segmental control exercises" As well as, application of ultrasound and transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation "TENS" for mechanical low back pain.
