Summary

This research is to determine the effectiveness of stretching versus soft tissue mobilization in coccydynia patients.The main purpose of the study is the the development of evidence based therapeutic protocols for postpartum coccydynia patients to improve functional impairment, range of motion, and reduction of pain.

Detailed description

The study design is randomized controlled trial.The interventions were carried out twice a week for three weeks with each session lasting approximately 20 min.Group A contains 34 patients and received STM focusing on mobilizing soft tissue to enhance circulation reduce scar tissue and improve functional flexibility.Group B received both STM and stretching twice a week for three weeks with each session lasting approximately 20 min.During entire treatment the therapist kept close eye on patient discomfort.The significance of the study lies in it's potential to enhance more effective non invasive treatment to alleviate symptoms

Conditions

• Coccidioidomycosis

Interventions

Type	Name	Description
DIAGNOSTIC_TEST	Stretching	The group A contains 34 patients and received STM for twice a week for three weeks with each session lasting approximately 20 min.focusing on mobilizing soft tissue to enhance circulation, reduce scar tissue and improve tissue flexibility.
COMBINATION_PRODUCT	Soft Tissue Mobilization	Group B received both STM and stretching twice a week for three weeks with each session lasting approximately 20 min.encourage the patient to breathe deeply and slowly to promote relaxation.The stretching of tight muscles 1 set of 10 repetitions hold of 5 second of each exercise,then breathing for 1 min
