Muscular flexibility is an important aspect of normal human function. Limited flexibility has been shown to affect a persons level of function as stated by Gurpreetkaur, Vol 7 2013 [1] poor hamstring flexibility, poor abdominal strength, increase levels of physical activity and work related postural stress leads to tight hamstring as stated by (Herting2006, Jonhager 1994 and Cool 1984) [6]. This postural imbalance leads to low back pain. Low back pain (LBP) is a problem worldwide with a lifetime prevalence reported to be as high as 84% ​​by World Health Organization (WHO) (Wilson et al, 2003) [8]. Hamstrings muscles are short are often reported in patients with low back pain. [14; 15,16,17]. Wingerden et al [18,19] proposed that hamstring tightness in individuals with low back pain would be the compensatory mechanisms for weak gluteal muscles.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Atlantic Books","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":46455670079639,"sku":"9786202511179","price":3677.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0666\/3471\/1191\/files\/9786202511179.webp?v=1769175722","url":"https:\/\/atlanticbooks.com\/products\/physiotherapy-techniques-on-hamstring-flexibility-in-female-9786202511179","provider":"Atlantic Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
