Brief summary (from the registry)

The goal of this clinical trial is to evaluate the effectiveness of the Kinetic control on pain, endurance, Gait and postural stability in patients suffering from chronic sacroiliac joint dysfunction. The main question it aims to answer is: * Does kinetic control training work on pain in SIJ dysfunction? * Does kinetic control therapy work on functional outcomes, including gait metrics, postural sway, and lumbar endurance? The treatment arm will receive the Kinetic control training, and the comparison arm will undergo standard physical therapy care. Participants will be asked to perform movement control exercises based on the principle of kinetic control training core muscles and hip muscles after routine physical therapy. The participants in the control/comparison group will only receive routine physical therapy that includes a heating pad, TENS, joint mobilizations, and stretching and strengthening exercises.
