RESULT: For lumbosacral angle statistically significant different was not found although the lumbosacral angle was normalized. For lumbar lordosis statistically significant different was not found although the lumbar lordosis angle was decreased. For pelvic level statistically significant different was not found although the pelvic level was equalized. Statistically significant improvement in symptoms was found after standing lumbar traction. There was significant correlation between lumbar lordosis and lumbosacral angle.
