Summary

It was a randomized control trial in which thirty (30) participants having GRID, age between 20-40 years were randomly allocated into two groups i-e NS (Novel stretching) Group (30) and PIR (posterior isometric relaxation techniques) Group (30), February 2022 to March 2022.PIR group received the posterior isometric relaxation techniques (three times a week for one month) and NS group received the Novel stretching (three times a week for one month). IR ROM was measured with a goniometer while pain was measured with Numeric Pain Rating Scale intervention and disability of arm, shoulder and hand was measured with DASH score before, immediately, and at week 4 post intervention.

Conditions

  • Glenohumeral Internal Rotation Deficit

Interventions

OTHER

POST ISOMTERIC RELAXATION TECHNIQUE

POST ISOMETRIC RELAXATION TECHNIQUES * Stretching the hypertonic muscle to the point when movement resistance is initially felt or just past the point of discomfort. * For 5 to 10 seconds, a submaximal (10-20%) hypertonic muscle contraction is carried out away from the barrier while resistance is supplied in the other side. To help with this, the individual should breathe in. * The individual is told to relax while breathing after the isometric contraction. After then, until the next barrier is reached, a gentle stretch is employed to pick up the slack. * Starting with this new barrier, the procedure is carried out two or three more times.

OTHER

NOVEL STRETCHING

NOVEL STRETCHING The NS will be performed in a supine posture for Group B participants. Participants will be instructed to open their knees while wearing a resistance band around their knees. Participant will be instructed to bridge as high as he can while keeping his shoulders 90 ° abducted and his elbows 90 ° flexed. By lifting the body weight upward, the bridging motion pins the scapula's medial border against the thorax without immediately squeezing or constricting the posterior shoulder bones. This position is thought to provide more flexibility of mobility while causing less discomfort. The subjects were instructed to hold this position while tightening or "squeezing" their gluteal muscles. They were also instructed to stretch by jerkily turning their shoulders inward as far as possible. Using the second hand, the stretch was pushed forward to the point of mild discomfort while contraction was maintained.
