简要总结
In this study, investigator will see the effects of neural mobilization in comparison to the muscle energy technique in the patients suffering from sciatica. Impact of the these two interventional techniques , there out come measures i.e pain, range of motion and functional disability.
详细描述
This study is aimed in comparison among two interventional techniques i.e neural mobilization and muscle energy technique patients with sciatica. This study will be a randomized controlled trial with double blinded protocol, patients will be randomly allocated in to the two groups. one is the neural mobilization technique group and other is the muscle energy technique group. both of the groups have the conventional physical therapy in addition to these two interventions. data will be collect from the patients.30 minutes session twice a week will be given to the patients in each group. assessment will be done by using visual analog scale, Goniometer, Modified Oswestry Disability Index. Data will be entered and analyzed by using SPSS.

结局指标
主要结局
Visual Analogue Scale
时间窗: 6 weeks
For the assessment of pain, Visual Analogue Scale will be used. it is 0 to 10 cm where 0 means no pain 10 means sever pain
Goniometry
时间窗: 6 weeks
For the documentation of range of motion, straight leg raise test (SLR) will be used. For this purpose goniometer will use.
Modified Oswestry Disability Index
时间窗: 6 weeks
For the assessment of functional disability Modified Oswestry Disability Index will be used.
