A visual analog scale for pain (VAS\u2010P) and a pain pressure threshold (PPT) algometer were used to measure pain intensity. A back range of motion (BROM) goniometer was used to measure lumbar ROM, and quality of life was assessed using the Short Form Health Survey (SF\u201036) to measure Physical Component Summary (PCS), Mental Component Summary (MCS), and total SF\u201036 score. The study group was given the High Tone Power Therapy along with the chosen physical therapy program, while the control group was given the physiotherapy program plus sham High Tone Power Therapy without current flow. For 4\u00a0weeks, both groups attended three sessions a week.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Results<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>\n                      Results revealed a significant improvement in the study group after treatment, with VAS\u2010P considerably decreasing (\n                      <jats:italic>p<\/jats:italic>\n                      \u00a0&lt;\u00a00.05), while PPT, lumbar ROM, PCS, MCS, and SF\u201036 total score increased more than in the control group.\n                    <\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusions<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>High Tone Power Therapy is an effective physical therapy strategy for improving function, discomfort, and quality of life while lowering Lumbosacral Radiculopathy symptoms.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1002\/pri.70252","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2026,6,15]],"date-time":"2026-06-15T11:50:32Z","timestamp":1781524232000},"update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1002\/crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":0,"title":["Effect of High Tone Power Therapy on Pain, Range of\u00a0Motion and Quality of Life in Lumbosacral Radiculopathy Patients"],"prefix":"10.1002","volume":"31","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0009-0005-6673-8475","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Ahmed Mohamed Abdel\u2010Rahman","family":"Afifi","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Physical Therapy for Neurology and Its Surgery Faculty of Physical Therapy October 6 University  Giza Egypt"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-9942-0923","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Eman S.","family":"Fayez","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Neuromuscular Disorders and Its Surgery Faculty of Physical Therapy Cairo University  Giza Egypt"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0009-0004-6049-6156","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Karim Abdelaziz","family":"Mohamed","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Neurosurgery Faculty of Medicine Cairo University  Giza Egypt"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-4914-2141","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Lama Saad El\u2010Din","family":"Mahmoud","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Physical Therapy for Neurology and Its Surgery Faculty of Physical Therapy October 6 University  Giza Egypt"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"311","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2026,6,15]]},"reference":[{"key":"e_1_2_13_2_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.48047\/nq.2022.20.10.NQ551282"},{"issue":"9","key":"e_1_2_13_3_1","first-page":"269","article-title":"Effect of High Tone Power Therapy On Neurophysiological Measures and Function Outcome in Patients With Diabetic Neuropathy","volume":"7","author":"Alshimy A.
