Lumbopelvic pain refers to self-reported pain in areas of lower region, anterior and posterior pelvic tilt or combination of these. Physical therapy interventions used are breathing exercises with and without core stability exercises. Tool used were Pain Pressure Algometer and Oswestry Disability Index.
Lumbopelvic pain is self-reported pain. It is common complaint for women after labour, and it is found that 25% of newly delivered women experienced low back and pelvic pain. Different interventions have been used to reduce the lumbopelvic pain in general including exercises, drugs, therapies and massage. An increasingly common approach used within physical therapy management are breathing exercises and core stabilization exercises. This study will used to compare the effects of breathing exercises with and without core stability exercise. Pre-assessment will be done using oswestry disability index as subjective measurement and pain pressure algometer as objective measure.

Exclusion Criteria:
breathing exercises
Other: traditional physical therapy
core stability exercise along with breathing exercises and pain pressure algometer is used
Other: core stability exercises
breathing exercises 10 repetitions, 1set, 3 days/week and targeted abdominal muscles. Total 6 sessions were given each consisting of 30 minutes.
core stability along with breathing exercise 10 repetitions, 1set, 3 days/week and targeted core muscles. Total 6 sessions were given consisting of 30 minutes.
Oswestry disability index
Changes from base line Oswestry disability index was developed first by Fairbank et al. It was designed to measure the back pain and disability over time. It consists of 10, five parts sections. At the end, score is calculated by dividing the obtained score by total (50) multiplied by 100. As the driving section in all the female patients, total score was considered as 45 instead of 50.
Time frame: 6th week
Pain Pressure Algometer
Changes from base line Pain Pressure Algometer was developed first by Baba et al. The pressure algometer has linear response to force application between 0 and 1,300 kilopascal.
Time frame: 6th week
ROM Back region (flexion)
Changes from the Baseline ROM range of motion of back region flexion was taken.
Time frame: 6th week
ROM Back region (extension)
Changes from the baseline ROM range of motion of back region extension was taken.
Time frame: 6th week
