Summary

This study intends to determine the effects of thoracic manipulation on pressure pain sensitivity in patients with rhomboid active trigger points.

Conditions

  • Trigger Points

Interventions

OTHER

Thoracic manipulation

Session will be performed twice a week for a three week period if a pop sound occurred then the therapist moved on next procedure ,if not subject will be repositioned and technique will performed again. This procedure will be performed for maximum of two attempts. Approximately 3 minutes of time is required to complete thrust manipulation subjects assigned to thrust manipulation also received general exercise program and manual pressure release technique as the control group. General exercise group involve Stretching exercises for the pectoral muscles and resisted strengthening exercises for the scapular retractors and elevators and the glenohumeral abductors and external rotators were performed three times per week for 3 weeks.

OTHER

conventional pt protocol

This group will receive manual pressure release technique along with general exercises program. General exercise group involve Stretching exercises for the pectoral muscles and resisted strengthening exercises for the scapular retractors and elevators and the glenohumeral abductors and external rotators were performed three times per week for 3 weeks.
