This disorder can be brought on by irregularities in the posture of the neck or in the innervated neck tissues like the common roots, muscles, ligaments, zygapophyseal joints, and intervertebral discs. This study investigates the impact of passive neck retraction mobilization and post-isometric relaxation on the range of motion, discomfort, and functional impairment in individuals experiencing nonspecific neck pain. A single-blinded clinical trial was conducted involving 12 patients, divided into two groups: Group A and Group B. Group A received post-isometric relaxation, while Group B received passive neck retraction mobilization. The intervention was applied 5 times in the first week and alternate days in the 2nd week and 3rd weeks. NPRS, NDI and ROM were measured prior to the experiment and on 8th, 15th and 22nd day after the experiment. Although both groups' total improvement in NPRS, functional impairment, and cervical ROM improved statistically significantly. In this study, post isometric relaxation has been shown to be clinically more meaningful than passive neck retraction mobilisation. Furthermore, this study suggests that post-isometric relaxation may be a useful intervention in clinical practice and supports its use by clinical physiotherapists in the treatment of nonspecific neck discomfort.","PeriodicalId":512665,"journal":{"name":"International Journal for Multidimensional Research Perspectives","volume":"1 2","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-06-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141336299","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Social media are web-based platforms for communication that let users share and receive information with one another. Modern society's cultural practices have been profoundly impacted by the \"new social media culture\" that emerged from the Internet and represented a radical shift in the tactics of traditional media. The phrase \"new social media culture\" can be used to characterize the kinds of modifications made to social and cultural structures as a result of the widespread use of digital technology. Social media, since its introduction, has shown without a doubt that it has the incredible ability to facilitate even small changes. A social media platform Facebook, created a revolutionary form of communication in 2004 by Zuckerberg Mark. It evolved from an interactive platform to one that included news, politics, and memes. After the establishment of Instagram, Snapchat, Twitter, TikTok, and other platforms, certain age groups gravitated towards them at the expense of others. Like Facebook, Twitter has developed into a forum for politics and culture during the past ten years. Most social media users are young people. Given that posting is simple and has a character limit on Twitter, memes and other aspects of youth culture usually appear first. Our paper's primary goal is to investigate how social media affects cultural shifts. This paper explores social media's tremendous cultural effects, looking at how it shapes society, amplifies the voices of marginalized groups, and shapes cultural norms and values. It examines the advantages and disadvantages that result from the fusion of culture and social media, illuminating the platforms' revolutionary potential in the digital sphere.","PeriodicalId":512665,"journal":{"name":"International Journal for Multidimensional Research Perspectives","volume":"8 6","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-06-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141349038","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Depending on where and how long the pain lasts, there are three general categorizations for Lumbar discomfort: acute less than 6 weeks, sub-acute 6 to 12 weeks, and chronic more than 12 weeks. Several theories concerning the cause of nonspecific LBP feature poor posture, low body mass, hamstring flexibility, psychological discomfort, diminished trunk extensor endurance, and faulty muscular control of trunk. Pain in the lower back is a challenging illness which can result from injuries pertaining to the muscles and ligaments providing support vertebral column or from overuse or strain. One common treatment method for Lumbar discomfort is exercise therapy. This includes diverse forms of therapies including muscular strengthening, several forms of flexibility and stretching, and cardiovascular exercise for overall physical fitness. Normally, the stabilization system's job is to give the spine enough stability to meet the demands of changing circumstances immediately due to the posture changes with static and dynamic loads. As Per traditional understanding, spinal stabilization primarily relies on spinal biomechanics, the intervertebral disc, spinal ligaments, and osseous components. The stabilization and mobility of the lumbar spine can be facilitated by any muscle that exits the lumbar region. However, according to certain research, the lumbar multifidus and transverses abdominis muscles are very crucial for the stability of the lumbar segment. There is preliminary data indicating that those with long-term Lumbar discomfort do not properly recruit their core muscles and display core weakness13. Standard Exercise for back extension and exercises for lumbar stability both are used to treat low back discomfort. Thus, an effort is undertaken to compare and investigate the benefits of traditional back extension exercises and lumbar stabilization activities in patients with chronic Lumbar discomfort.","PeriodicalId":512665,"journal":{"name":"International Journal for Multidimensional Research Perspectives","volume":"30 21","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-06-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141270651","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
