Summary

Effects of Post-Isometric Relaxation Technique versus Cross Friction Soft Tissue Mobilization in Leg Spin Bowlers with Rotator cuff strain

Detailed description

The existing body of research on Pakistani Cyclists lacks comprehensive investigation into the role of sciatic nerve flossing and active release technique, creating a noticeable gap in understanding the impact of such techniques on the performance, improving flexibility, and overall physical well-being of these athletes. Given the unique physical demands of Cyclists and the potential benefits associated with lower limb muscle strength, a focused exploration in this area is crucial to inform training strategies, enhance athletic performance, and contribute to the holistic development of Pakistani cyclists. To determine the comparative impact of sciatic nerve flossing and active release technique on pain, flexibility, and functionality in the lower limbs of cyclists with sciatica.

Conditions

• Sports Physical Therapy

Interventions

Type	Name	Description
OTHER	post isometric relaxation	the athlete will be given instructions to perform a 7-second isometric contraction in the direction of horizontal abduction at about 25% of peak effort, while the examiner will apply an opposing force at the distal humerus.
OTHER	cross friction soft tissue mobilization	by identifying the fascia restriction, patients in group B will be treated with the cross friction soft tissue mobilization approach, which comprised applying a low load and prolonged stretch through the knuckles or elbows to the constricted fascia. The therapist will then give the contralateral side of rotation resistance for ten seconds
