About

This study is a randomised control trial and the purpose of this study is to determine the "Effects of Facilitated Postional Release Technique( FPRT) Vs Manual Myofascial Release Technique in Female Patients With Piriformis Syndrome.

Full description

The purpose of this study is to determine the "Effects of Facilitated positional release technique vs manual myofascial release technique in female patietns with piriformis syndrome.

we make 2 groups control and treatment group . we give FPRT technique to treatment group and manual release technique to control group in patients with piriformis syndrome.

first we take base line readings of HIP ROMS( abduction, adduction, internal rotation, external rotation),NPRS and LEFS(lower extremity functional scale)..

after 2 weeks of treatment again we take same readings and compare both readings.
