Acute effect of neurodynamic moblisation technique

Not yet recruiting

Conditions: healthy

Registration Number: CTRI/2025/06/089037

Lead Sponsor: Delhi pharmaceutical sciences and research university

Brief Summary: Neurodynamic mobilisation is a manual technique that appliesforce to neural tissues through posture and multi-joint movements, facilitatingthe sliding of neural structures relative to surrounding tissues . Thistechnique is believed to reduce neural mechanosensitivity throughneurodynamic sliding methods, the use of neurodynamic sliders (NS) andtensioners (NT) can help alleviate abnormal mechanosensitivity, producing excursion and strain onthe neural tissues.The participants will be formally invited to join the study. Before their involvement, all participants will undergo a general assessment, which will include collecting demographic information, anthropometric data (weight in kg, height in cm², and BMI in kg/m²), IPAQ questionnaire, educational background, and details regarding any current medications they are taking.**After explaining the significance, benefits, and purpose of the study in either Hindi or English, informed consent will be obtained from the participants. To ensure fairness, all the selected participants will be randomly assigned to either Group A (NDS slider group) or Group B (NDS tensioner group) or Group C (control group). Prior to any interventions, baseline measurements of all the subjects will be taken, and will be subjected to Active knee extension test, Sargent jump test and the scores will be noted on the Data collection form.**

**• Following the intervention, assessments will be conducted for all subjects at T1(immediately after intervention) and T2 (60 min after intervention). Score from Active knee extension test and Sargent jump test will be collected and analyzed.**
