Effects of the Egoscue Exercises With and Without Mwm Among Patients With Knee Osteoarthritis

Starting soon · Not applicable

Conditions studied: Knee Osteoarthritis

In brief

Knee osteoarthritis is a common degenerative joint disorder characterized by joint pain, stiffness, limited mobility, and reduced quality of life. It primarily affects the elderly population and poses a major burden on functional independence and healthcare resources. While various physiotherapy approaches have shown benefits in managing KOA symptoms, Mulligan's Mobilization with Movement is a manual therapy technique that has gained clinical attention for improving pain and joint mechanics. Similarly, Egoscue postural alignment exercises, which focus on restoring musculoskeletal balance through corrective movement patterns, have shown potential in addressing chronic pain and postural dysfunction, though evidence remains limited in knee osteoarthritis populations. This study aims to evaluate the effects of Egoscue exercises with and without MWM on pain, range of motion, balance, and quality of life in patients with knee osteoarthritis
