Arm && Interventions

Group	Intervention	Description
Group A	IASTM	Group A received IASTM as treatment protocol
Group B	METS	Group B received METs as a treatment protocol

Primary Outcome Measures

Name	Time	Method
VAS and goniometer	4 months	Visual analog scaleThe Visual Analog Scale (VAS) is a 10 cm line with anchor statements on the left (no pain) and on the right (extreme pain) and universal goniometer to measure the range of motion, an instrument that measures angle motion at a joint.

Secondary Outcome Measures

Name	Time	Method
DASH questionaire	4 months	The disabilities of the arm, shoulder and hand (DASH) questionnaire is a self-administered region-specific outcome instrument developed as a measure of self-rated upper-extremity disability and symptoms. The DASH consists mainly of a 30-item disability/symptom scale, scored 0 (no disability) to 100
