Status Recruiting

Clinical Trial Summary

Aim of my study is to compare two techniques of METS i.e., autogenic and reciprocal inhibition techniques on pain, disability and Range of motion among smart phone user with trapezitis.

Clinical Trial Description

Study focuses trapezitis in smart phone users. There are many different causes of neck pain, but one common factor is upper trapezitis. This refers to pain and spasms in the neck caused by inflammation of the trapezius muscle. The aim of this study is to compare the effects of autogenic and reciprocal inhibition techniques on pain, range of motion and disability among smart phone user with trapezitis.

This study will be randomized clinical trial and 40 patients male and female with age 20 to 40 years having NPRS >3 according to inclusion criteria will be included in the study. They will be allocated into 2 groups by non-probability convenience sampling technique. Group A will receive autogenic inhibition technique with conventional physical therapy while Group B will receive reciprocal inhibition technique with conventional therapy. Outcome measures; Neck Disability Index, goniometry and Numeric Pain Rating Scale will measure neck function and neck pain intensity. Total 12 sessions, 3 sessions per week for 4 weeks were provided. Each session was 45 minutes long and measurements will be taken at the baseline and at the end of 4th week. Data will be analyzed by SPSS version 25 ;
