Low back pain in pregnancy may be complained by women in second and third trimesters. It is caused by increase in body weight and hormonal changes in pregnancy. Increase in body weight lead to changes in centre of mass (COM) that causes lordosis progressive. In the end of pregnancy period progesteron and relaxin increase, their role is to relax and loosen the tissues of body in order to help prepare for childbirth. This is causes however shifting of the joints and laxity in the muscles and ligaments in pelvis and resulting in low back pain. Thus pregnant women are suggested to do exercise regularly to reduce the pain. The aim of this study was to investigate the influence of Yophytta Maternal exercise on the low back pain scale in second and third trimesters of pregnancy. This study used pre-experimental one-group pre-post test design with non probability sampling (purposive sampling). Sample comprised of 9 respondents who fit the inclusion criteria.
