Brief Summary  

COMPARING THE EFFECTIVENESS OF NEURAL MOBILIZATION AND KINETIC CHAIN ACTIVATION TECHNIQUE COMBINED WITH BLOOD FLOW RESTRICTION TRAINING ON PAIN, ROM, GRIP STRENGTH AND FUNCTIONAL DISABILITY IN CERVICAL RADICULOPATHY- A RANDOMIZED CLINICAL TRIAL

Aim of the study-To determine and compare the effectiveness of neural mobilization and KCAT combined with BFR training in cervical radiculopathy.

Inclusion criteria: Participants-

Between age group 18-60.Presence of unilateral symptoms of arm pain, paraesthesia or numbness in the upper limb.Participants’ positive for at least one of the following clinical tests: upper limb nerve tension test (ULNTT), Spurling test and Distraction test. Pain intensity greater than 3/10 on the NPRS

Exclusion criteria: Paricipants-
Patients with previous cervical surgeries and having traumatic history like cervical fractures ,  dislocation, whiplash injuries..History of carcinoma.Neurological deficits like stroke, SCI, PNI, myelopathy, MS.Skin disorders like open wounds, active infection,  allergic conditions

Outcome Measures: NPRS, NDI,Handheld dynamometer, Goniometer

Procedure

Participants will be divided into two groups. Group A will be given BFR and neural mobilization and group B will be given BFR and KCAT. Participants will be given 5 sessions on alternate days for 2 weeks. Participants will be assessed pre and post intervention.
