What this trial studies

This study evaluates the effects of progressive muscle relaxation (PMR) exercises on lumbopelvic pain and insomnia in pregnant women. PMR involves systematically tensing and relaxing muscle groups to promote relaxation and alleviate discomfort. The study focuses on pregnant women in their second and third trimesters who experience significant pain and sleep disturbances. Participants will engage in PMR alongside conventional therapies such as hot packs and patient education to assess the overall impact on their symptoms.
