Summary

This study looked at whether adding Dynamic Neuromuscular Stabilization (DNS) exercises to standard physical therapy helps women with chronic low back pain caused by a herniated disc. 44 women took part, with one group doing only standard exercises and the other adding DNS moves. After 8 weeks, the group doing DNS had greater improvements in pain, disability, and core strength. The goal was to ease symptoms and improve daily function, not to cure the underlying condition.
