How is the study designed?

Design Details

  • Primary Purpose: Treatment
  • Allocation: Randomized
  • Interventional Model: Parallel Assignment
  • Masking: Single

Arms and Interventions

Participant Group / Arm
Intervention / Treatment
Experimental: Active Release Technique
In ART the particular muscle is taken from shortened to lengthened position or vice versa. Duration of treatment will be of 8-15min
74 participants divided into two groups and 37 in each group.
Experimental: Muscles Energy Technique
In METs,the protocol will perform for 3 repetitions per day and thrice a week for 5 week.
74 participants divided into two groups and 37 in each group.

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Numerical pain rating scale
Time Frame: Change from Baseline in pain to 6 week
patients rate their pain from 0 to 10, from 0 to 20, or from 0 to 100. Zero represents "no pain," whereas 10, 20, or 100 represents the opposite end of the pain continuum (e.g., "the most intense pain imaginable," "pain as intense as it could be," "maximum pain").
Change from Baseline in pain to 6 week
Universal Goniometry
Time Frame: Change from Baseline in range of motion to 6 week
Universal goniometer (UG) is commonly used as a standard method to evaluate range of motion (ROM) as part of joint motions.
Change from Baseline in range of motion to 6 week
Shoulder Pain and Functional Disability Index
Time Frame: Change from Baseline in disability to 6 week
The Shoulder Pain and Disability Index (SPADI) is a self-administered questionnaire consisting of items grouped into pain and disability subscales.
Change from Baseline in disability to 6 week
