研究组 & 干预措施
experimental: Strain Counter Strain
Strain Counter Strain involves positioning of hypertonic muscles and dysfunctional joints towards position of comfort. Initial session 2 to 3 times per week. Hot packs 2 to 3 times per week. Tens 2 to 3 times per week. Each session lasts 30 to 60 minutes holding the position for 90 seconds to 2 minutes. Exercises includes.
干预措施: Strain Counter Strain (Other)
Active Comparator: Myofascial Release
Myofascial release focuses on the fascia , connective tissue that surrounds muscles, bones and organs which becomes tight and restrict movement. ,Myo fascial release 2 to 3 times per week. 60 seconds per area. Hot packs 2 to 3 times per week. Low frequency TENS. Foam rolling for Calves and Hamstrings. Quadriceps isometric Contraction holds for 10 to 15 seconds with 2 to 4 sets of each exercise. Hamstrings and Adductor isometric contractions.
干预措施: Myofascial Release (Other)
结局指标
主要结局
Numeric Pain Rating Scale
时间窗: at the baseline and at the end of 4 week
The Numeric Pain Rating Scale is a very common tool to asses pain in clinical settings. It is 0 to 10 pain rating scale in which 0 indicates no pain and 10 indicates worse pain.
Quality of Life (QoL)
时间窗: at the baseline of 4 weeks
QoL is 26 item tool for reliability, validity and responsiveness to changes in health.
次要结局
- Time Up and Go Test TUG(at the baseline and at the end of 4 weeks)
