This will be a randomized clinical trial. The study will be conducted at Pakistan Railways General Hospital Rawalpindi and Riphah International Hospital Islamabad. Patients with FJS will be included. The aim of this study is to find the comparative effects of multimodal physical therapy treatment and proprioceptive training along with multimodal physical therapy treatment on pain, lumbar ranges of motion, disability, fatigue, lumbar lordosis curvature and balance. Participants will be assessed for pain, lumbar range of motions, lumbar lordosis, disability, fatigue and balance before treatment. The intervention duration is 06 weeks, 03 sessions per week will be given to all participants. Pain and lumbar ranges of motion will be measured on every visit. At the end of 06th week final readings for functional status, fatigue level, lumbar lordosis angle, fall risk and limits of stability will also be recorded. Data will be analyzed by SPSS v.23.
