Summary

The goal of this clinical trial is to find the effect of integrated neuromuscular inhibition technique for iliotibial band in iliotibial band friction syndrome on pain intensity level, pressure pain threshold, knee range of motion, knee function and knee angle . The main questions it aims to answer are:

* Is there an effect of integrated neuromuscular inhibition technique for iliotibial band on pain intensity level in iliotibial band friction syndrome?
* Is there an effect of integrated neuromuscular inhibition technique for iliotibial band on pressure pain threshold in iliotibial band friction syndrome?
* Is there an effect of integrated neuromuscular inhibition technique for iliotibial band on knee range of motion in iliotibial band friction syndrome?
* Is there an effect of integrated neuromuscular inhibition technique for iliotibial band on knee function in iliotibial friction syndrome? Is there an effect of integrated neuromuscular inhibition technique for iliotibial band on knee angle in iliotibial band friction syndrome?

Researchers will compare integrated neuromuscular inhibition technique to conventional physiotherapy to see if integrated neuromuscular inhibition technique works to treat iliotibial band syndrome.

Participants will:

* Take sessions for 2 weeks
* Visit the department 3 times per week
