Official title

"Effects of Facilitated Postional Release Technique( FPRT) Vs Manual Myofascial Release Technique in Female Patients With Piriformis Syndrome

Overview

This study is a randomised control trial and the purpose of this study is to determine the "Effects of Facilitated Postional Release Technique( FPRT) Vs Manual Myofascial Release Technique in Female Patients With Piriformis Syndrome.

Detailed description

The purpose of this study is to determine the "Effects of Facilitated positional release technique vs manual myofascial release technique in female patietns with piriformis syndrome.

we make 2 groups control and treatment group . we give FPRT technique to treatment group and manual release technique to control group in patients with piriformis syndrome.

first we take base line readings of HIP ROMS( abduction, adduction, internal rotation, external rotation),NPRS and LEFS(lower extremity functional scale)..

after 2 weeks of treatment again we take same readings and compare both readings.

Interventions

  • Procedure Myofacial Release
    Manual Myofascial Release: Control group will receive 3- 5 repetitions of Manual Myofascial Release in Piriformis muscle i.e giving ischemic pressure on muscle directly for 90 secs and then release.
  • Procedure Facilitated positional release technique
    FPRT: Treatment group will receive 5 repetitions of FACILITATED POSITIONAL RELEASE technique i.e applying pressure over tender area of muscle while maintaining specific postion

Primary outcome measures

  • Change in ROM [Time frame: 2 weeks]
