The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of pilates exercise on back pain index, pelvic tilt angle, and physical fitness for pregnant women with low back pain. All study participants who has pregnant induced back pain, were randomly assigned to pilates exercise group(PG, n=8), or control group(CG, n=7). PG performed pilates exercise for 50 minutes 3 times a week for 8 weeks. Back pain scale, and pelvic tilt angle were measured by the visual analogue scale, and the angulometer, respectivly. Cardiopulmonary endurance, flexibility, and grip strength were measured to examine the physical fitness.
As the results, back pain in the PG were significantly decreased from 4.69±1.28 to 1.06±0.94, whereas CG was significantly increased from 2.63±2.20 to 4.71±2.56. Left pelvic angle in the PG showed a significant decrease from 13.94±3.70°to 12.29±2.95°, otherwise CG showed no significant difference from 13.07±4.42°to 17.37±3.13°. Right pelvic angle in the PG showed a significant decrease from 13.50±4.47°to 10.34±3.66°, otherwise no significant difference in CG found from 12.44±4.98°to 15.30±3.61°. These results showed that regular participation of Pilates exercise was effective to reduce pelvic tilt angle. For physical fitness, PG showed a significant increase in cardiopulmonary endurance, flexibility, grip strength. However, CG showed any significance increase in those variables.
In conclusion, after 8 weeks of pilates exercise, the PG group showed decrease in lower back pain, maintain or reduce in pelvic tilt angle, and increase in cardiopulmonary endurance, grip strength, and flexibility compare to CG group.
