Introduction: Low back pain is a problem worldwide with a lifetime prevalence reported as 34% by WHO1. Low back pain(LBP) is experienced by at least 80% of adults, both men and women equally at least once in their lifetime. 2 Direct nerve mobilization uses sliders, tensioners and nerve mobilization crossing single joint addressing the interface between various surfaces. The Mulligan BLR technique has been described as means of improving range of SLR(Straight leg raise), AKE(active knee extension) and hamstring flexibility in subjects with LBP or referred thigh pain. Aims: The aim of this study was to compare the effectiveness of both techniques in treating patients with lumbar radiculopathy. Methodology: After receiving permission from Institutional Ethics committee, sixty subjects were randomly allocated to Mulligan Bent knee raise and Neural tissue Mobilization group. Lumbar stabilization exercises were given to both groups. Intervention was given for 3 days/week for 3 weeks. Results: Data was analyzed using SPSS VERSION 17.0. The results showed significant difference in all 3 outcome measures ie SLR, Modified Oswestry Disability Index( MODI) score and NPRS scale in intra- group comparison. But inter-group comparison was non-significant for pain score (NPRS scale) and disability (MODI score) but showed significant difference for passive SLR range where the range improved to a greater extent with slump neural mobilization technique than mulligan bent leg raise. Conclusion: We conclude that both mulligan bent leg raise and slump neural mobilization are equally effective in reducing pain and disability. Also, both the techniques improve range of SLR but slump neural mobilization increases SLR range to a greater extent than mulligan bent leg raise.
