Effects of Global Postural Reeducation on Psychophysical Wellbeing in Housewives With Chronic Non-specific LBP.
Pakistan30 participantsStarted 2025-09-30
Plain-language summary
This study aims to explore the multidimensional impact of Global postural reeducation in a population that is not only physically overburdened but also psychologically strained due to the demands of domestic life. Unlike conventional therapies that often focus solely on pain relief, GPR offers a comprehensive intervention model that may simultaneously enhance physical function, reduce psychological stress, and improve sleep quality. By targeting housewives with chronic non-specific LBP, this study seeks to fill a critical gap in the literature and provide evidence for a more inclusive, preventive, and non-pharmacological approach to musculoskeletal and mental health management
