First seen Feb 28, 2026 · Last updated Jun 23, 2026 · Updated 15 times
Summary
This study tested whether combining Maitland mobilization (a gentle hands-on technique) with lumbopelvic coordination exercises could reduce pain, improve movement, and boost quality of life in people with tailbone pain after a colonoscopy. 42 adults aged 18 to 60 took part. One group received standard physical therapy (heat and stretching), while the other group added the mobilization and coordination exercises. The goal was to see if the combo approach offered better relief.
