Low Back Pain (LBP) is often caused by spondylolisthesis, which causes pain, limited mobility, and disability. Conservative physiotherapy is the primary option to reduce symptoms and improve function. This study aims to evaluate the effectiveness of multimodal physiotherapy interventions in patients with LBP and spondylolisthesis. A case report study was conducted on a 59-year-old female patient diagnosed with LBP and spondylolisthesis. The patient underwent three physiotherapy intervention sessions: Infrared (IR), Short-Wave Diathermy (SWD), Transcutaneous Electrical Nerve Stimulation (TENS), William Flexion Exercise, Core Stability, and Strengthening. Evaluation was performed using the Numeric Rating Scale (NRS) for pain, a goniometer for joint range of motion (LGS), Manual Muscle Testing (MMT) for muscle strength, and the Oswestry Disability Index (ODI) for function. The results of the therapy showed a significant reduction in pain, namely silent pain from a score of 5 to 1 and pain on movement from a score of 6 to 3. Lumbar ROM increased with flexion from 70 degrees to 85 degrees. Lumbar muscle strength also improved, flexors from a score of 4 to 5 and extensors from a score of 3 to 5. ODI decreased from 55.5% (severe disability category) to 12% (minimal disability category). Multimodal physiotherapy interventions have been proven effective in reducing pain, improving LGS, muscle strength, and function in patients with LBP et causa spondylolisthesis.
