Brief Summary:
Gluteal amnesia is a "condition" where the individual is believed to have lost the ability to contract their gluteal muscles - generally the gluteus maximus, though some report it as the gluteus medius. This can take many different names, such as "dead butt", "sleeping glutes", or glutes that are "turned off".Since the gluteus medius normally helps stabilize the pelvis, gluteal amnesia can lead to lower back pain and hip pain, as well as knee and ankle issues, as the body tries to compensate for the imbalance.
Detailed Description:
A Randomized controlled trial will be conducted at Jinnah Hospital Physiotherapy Clinic \& Boston Physiotherapy and wellness Clinic through consecutive sampling technique on 32 patients which will be allocated through simple random sampling through sealed opaque enveloped into group A \& group B. Group A will be treated with clamshell exercises at the frequency of 3 sets with 10 repetitions 3 times/ week with baseline treatment. Group B will be treated with gluteal bridge and baseline treatment. Baseline treatment for both groups will be given Hot pack at low back for 10 minutes and Quadriceps and hamstring stretching 3 times with 30 seconds hold. Outcome measures will be conducted through pain, disability and quality of life questionnaire after 6 weeks. Data will be analyzed during SPSS software version 21. After assessing normality of data by Shapiro -Wilk test, it will be decided either parametric or non-parametric test will be used within a group or between two groups.
