Core stabilization group
control group
Patients performed Jacobson relaxation technique in supine position. Respiration control and various visual imaging techniques were used during the technique. Relaxation exercises were made within the supervision of a physiotherapist. The application period was 20 minutes for one session, 3 days a week and totally six weeks.
Patients exercised with proprioceptive neuromuscular facilitation technique for trunk muscles using chopping and lifting patterns with ritmic initiation PNF exercises were made by the physiotherapist. The application period was 20 minutes for one session, 3 days a week and totally six weeks.
Patients had core stabilization exercises that involved spinal mobility. The patients performed the drawing-in maneuver within various visual imaging techniques during all exercises, especially with respiratory control. Exercises were made within the supervision of a physiotherapist. The application period was 20 minutes for one session, 3 days a week and totally six weeks.
Patients in the control group were told the importance of a single session exercise
