Study & Design

Study Type: interventional

Study Design: Not specified

Primary Outcome Measures

Name	Time	Method
ateral Scapular Slide Test. Timepoint: Baseline reading before intervention and after 4 weeks of intervention as final reading. Method of measurement: Scapular distance was measured using 8inch ruler from inferior angle of scapula to the adjacent vertebrae (T7/T8).

Secondary Outcome Measures

Name	Time	Method
QuickDASH score. Timepoint: Baseline reading before intervention and final reading was taken at 4th week after intervention. Method of measurement: Disability score was calculated of each individual by the formula given on QuickDASH questionnaire.
