Summary

This study tests whether a gentle hands-on technique called myofascial release, combined with specific exercises, can reduce round ligament pain in pregnant women. The trial includes 70 women at 24 weeks of pregnancy who have this type of pain. One group receives the manual therapy plus exercise, while the other group gets standard care and a belly band. The goal is to see if the combined approach provides better pain relief.
