- Abstract
Background: The anterior pelvic tilt is characterized by ASIS rotating inferiorly in relation to the PSIS or being positioned lower than the PSIS in the sagittal plane. When compared to non-athletes, football players are more likely to have a higher anterior pelvic tilt angle. The anterior pelvic tilt experienced by football players may make them more prone to musculoskeletal problems. Purpose: This study is intended to compare the effects of Swiss ball and McKenzie exercise on a sample of football players who have an anterior pelvic tilt without any symptoms. Materials and Methods: 30 Subjects who were selected in the stadium under Shai physio clinic based on inclusion criteria. They were divided equally among two groups. Group A (n=15) subjects were managed with Swiss Ball exercise and Group B (n= 15) subjects were managed with McKenzie exercise. The subjects were evaluated using Angulus ROM software. Study period: October 2022 to June 2023. Results: In Group A (Swiss Ball), the post-test mean value was 10.80 (2.27), significantly lower compared with Group B (Mckenzie Exercise), 16.33 (3.04). This demonstrates the correction of excessive anterior tilt among football players in Group-A following Swiss Ball Therapy. However, the subjects in both groups were found to have a significantly decreased anterior tilting of the pelvis now exists following the interventions in Group A (Swiss Ball) and Group B (Mckenzie Exercise). Conclusion: According to the present study's findings, participants with anterior pelvic tilt responded well to both the interventions. Nonetheless the subjects who used a Swiss ball exercise were found to have correction in anterior pelvic tilt more quickly than those who performed the McKenzie exercise.
