Summary

The goal of this study is to compare the effects of Kinesiotaping and Active Release Technique in patients with CTS to see which method is better for improving Pain, Grip Strength, Range of Motion and functional disability.

Conditions

  • Carpal Tunnel Syndrome

Interventions

OTHER

Kinesiotape

Tape with a width of 5 cm and a thickness of 0.5 mm will be utilized. Kinesio Tex I Strip is estimated from elbow to fingertips and cut. It will be collapsed roughly two squares from the end and cut into two triangles on the overlay. The third and fourth fingers are fallen through openings and Kinesio Tex is applied on the dorsum of the hand with no strain. The situation of elbow extension, wrist extension, and radial deviation is given, and Kinesio Tex will be applied from hand to medial epicondyle with 15%-25% tension and end at medial epicondyle with no strain

OTHER

Active Release Technique

This group will receive Kinesiotaping with the same method along with Active release technique will be performed on group 2. We will apply profound tension at the region of tenderness while the patient is told to effectively move the injury site from a shortened to lengthened position. The setting of a contact point close to the injury and making the patient move in a way that creates a longitudinal sliding movement of delicate tissues e.g. nerves, ligaments and muscles underneath the contact point.
