Response - NO
Brief Summary   NEED OF STUDY: Cryoair therapy and Cryo massage are already proven effective individually in acute trapezitis  but there are no such studies who have compared this both techniques so there is need of study. 

NPRS, NDI, and goniometry measurements will be taken pre test and post test after each session. Consecutively total 4 sessions will be conducted and the effect will seen.
