Immediate Effect of Spray and Stretch Technique on Trapezits: An Experimental Study
Journal Title: Journal of Medical Science And clinical Research - Year 2017, Vol 5, Issue 4
Abstract
Background: Inflammation of upper trapezius muscle is known as trapezitis. It leads to myofascial trigger point and muscle spasm. It causes range of motion restriction of cervical spine, tenderness and neck pain. Many clinicians have widely used spray and stretch technique in treating myofascial trigger point, musculoskeletal dysfunction and increases range of motion of various joints in conditions like tendinopathy, epicondylitis, active and passive hip flexion and concluded to be effective treatment. Aim: To analyse the immediate of spray and stretch technique on acute trapezitis. Method and Materials: Primary data collection was done from various institutes in Belagavi using convenience sampling method, 30 subjects affected with trapezitis, between the age group of 18-30 years were included using inclusion criteria and subjects were assessed before and after the treatment with outcome measures that were cervical range of motion and pressure algometer. Results: The results suggested that cervical range of motion and pressure algometer both were significant. Conclusion: The present study provided evidence to prove that spray and stretch technique is effective in terms to increases range of motion and increase pain pressure threshold on acute trapezitis.
