Brief Summary
|
Calf flexibility is a essential component as its tightness is one of the common problems in young people which can lead to injury and restricted range of motion of ankle joint. Factors that contribute in reduced flexibility of calf muscle are sedentary lifestyle, medical comorbidities, inadequate stretching and prolong standing hours. Reduced flexibility and restricted range of motion can further result in reduced functional mobility. In present study a total of 126 participants will be divided into 2 groups. At baseline all participants will be assessed by weight bearing lunge test and lower extremity functional scale. Group A will receive Post Isometric Relaxation Technique and Group B will receive Foam Rolling Technique for thrice a week for 2 weeks and post intervention measurement will be taken at day 14 and data will be analyzed and result will be obtained. |
