TENNIS ELBOW – EFFECTS OF ELBOW MWM ON SHOULDER ROM : Shekhar Singh *

Abstract Clinical observations have suggested a relationship between shoulder range of movement (ROM) and lateral epicondylalgia. This study reports the effect of an intervention of a mobilization with movement (MWM) applied to the elbow, on shoulder rotation ROM in subjects with lateral epicondylalgia. Thirty two subjects with lateral epicondylalgia were included. In a one-group pretest-post-test […]

TO STUDY THE EFFECTIVENESS OF SEDATING LI-2 (LARGE INTESTINE) MERIDIAN POINT WITH MICRO CURRENT STIMULATION, IN INHIBITING HAMSTRING OVER ACTIVITY & IMPROVING HAMSTRING FLEXIBILITY IN ATHLETES : Gagandeep Arora *

Abstract Background: Changes in apparent leg length”(leg retraction) have been used by many as a means of locating subluxation in various Joints. The leg assessment is based on the assumption that unequal muscular contraction (e.g. hyper irritable muscles) about the spine and pelvis have the ability to retract one leg relative to the other.
