Studies have shown that sensorimotor training with myofascial release can be effective in improving pain, lumbar range of motion and functional disability. The aim of this study is to evaluate the effects of Sensorimotor control training with and without myofascial releases on Pain, Lumbar range of motion and functional disability due to sciatica. Participants which meet inclusion criteria will be randomly allocated using online randomization tool into two groups. Group A will receive somatosensory control training with Routine Physical Therapy for 45 minutes with short resting interv
