Aims and Objective: Low back pain (LBP) is a common disorder, which involve the muscles, nerves, and bones of the back. Low back pain is one of the most common musculoskeletal conditions and every individual experience low back pain once in his life. Mechanical back pain (MBP) is the general term that refers to any type of back pain caused by placing abnormal stress and strain on muscles of the vertebral column. The objective of this study was to see the effects of exercises induced motor skills in chronic MBP. Method: The present study includes 30 subjects with age range of 22-50 years, were divided into two groups. Group A (n=15) and Group B (n=15) respectively. VAS Pain Score and Quebec LBP questionnaire are recorded for pre- intervention in both the group. In group A General Back Exercise was given for 3 weeks. In group B Gross Motor Skills was given for 3 weeks. After 3 weeks VAS Pain Score and Quebec LBP questionnaire were recorded, evaluated and assessed for comparison in both the groups. Result: There was a significant difference between pre intervention and post intervention of group A & group B. Post-post intervention for VAS has not shown significant difference but Quebec back pain disability questionnaire shown significant difference. Conclusion: Gross motor activities are much more effective in low back pain patients as compared to conventional methods.
