Interventions
Instrument Assisted Soft Tissue Mobilization (IASTM)
Participants in this group will receive Instrument-Assisted Soft Tissue Mobilization (IASTM). The intervention will be administered for 2 weeks, with 3 treatment sessions per week, according to the standardized study protocol. The effects of the intervention will be evaluated on pain intensity, functional disability, and lumbar range of motion.
