Study type | Interventional |
The primary objective of this study is to determine if a more specific exercise routine that incorporates a progressive hip stability program will help to rehabilitate the hip and reduce symptoms of iliotibial band syndrome more than conventional hip exercises. Three different exercises interventions will be compared to determine its effectiveness in reducing pain, improving function and returning subjects to running symptom free. Secondary objective for this study is to establish an intervention program for female runners with this injury. There will be three treatment arms and participants will be randomly assigned to one of three groups: Group A- control (stretching), group B (conventional hip exercises and group C (experimental treatment- specific progressive hip exercises).
