| Résumé : | Background and objectives Decreased hamstring flexibility has been associated with LBP (lower back pain). Increased tightness or shortening of hamstring muscle may cause pelvis imbalance or tilt and create instability and increase LBP risk. This study was conducted to pinpoint the differences between right and left hamstring length and their association to LBP in Israeli adult and elderly women. Methods N = 109 women which were divided into two groups: Adult group, 41 women (aged 45?60) and older group, 68 women (aged 60?75), with LBP that exercise regularly (minimum twice weekly) were selected based on inclusion criteria. Hamstring flexibility was measured using the Passive Straight Leg Raise test and Sit and Reach test, and LBP was measured using the Oswestry Disability Index (OS), the Roland-Morris questionnaire (RM), and a personal information questionnaire. Findings Findings indicate a statistically significant difference (p |
