Abstract
PURPOSE OF THE STUDY: To compare the effectiveness of Muscle Energy Technique and Maitland mobilization coupled with Ultrasound in patients with periarthritis of shoulder joint. MATERIALS AND METHODS: 20 subjects with periarthritis were randomly allocated. The subjects were treated Ultrasound coupled with Muscle Energy Technique (Group I) and Maitland Mobilization (Group II). The treatment was given for 45 minutes a day up to 2 months. The outcome was measured in terms of shoulder pain and disability index (SPADI). RESULTS: Independent "t" test was used to compare the pre test and post test values between each groups. On comparing the mean values of SPADI of two groups, the study shows there is a significant increase in the post test values of ultrasound coupled with muscle energy technique than Ultrasound coupled with Maitland Mobilization. CONCLUSION: Ultrasound coupled with muscle energy technique is more effective than Maitland mobilization in reducing pain and disability, enhancing shoulder function among periarthritis subjects.
