Objective: The main objective of the study was to determine the effects of manual stretching and joint mobilization with the treatment of neurological development to improve functional mobility among stroke patients. Methodology: Twenty-four subjects from the Shalamar hospital aged between 35 and 65 were considered after 2 weeks of stroke. Manual stretching and joint mobilization techniques have been applied with neurodevelopment techniques to analyze functional improvement among stroke patients. The pre-evaluation was carried out using the Berg equilibrium scale, Ashworth scale and Time up and Go (TUG). Each patient underwent 30 treatment sessions, 5 days a week. Patients were re-evaluated on the same scales after treatment. Data was analyzed using SPSS. Results: The paired sample t-test was used to see the effects of manual stretching and joint mobilization with neurodevelopment treatment to improve functional mobility among stroke patients. 24 patients received treatment with 30 sessions, 5 days a week. There was a significant improvement in their functional mobility. Their spasticity was also reduced. There was also a significant improvement in their cognitive abilities.

Mechanical neck pain is also known as axial neck pain or nonspecific neck pain as it is non radiating pain and has an acute or sudden onset without known etiology. \u0000Objective: To compare the effectiveness of isometric exercises and stretching versus isometric exercises and stretching with ergonomic modifications for mechanical neck pain. \u0000Material and Methods: This is an RCT randomized control trial, single blind study which consists of 30 subjects (n=30) of age 20-45 years, with 15 subjects (n=15) in experimental group (isometric exercises and stretchings with ergonomic modifications were applied) and 15 subjects (n=15) in control group (isometric exercises and stretchings were applied).Duration of study was 6 months. Pre and post treatment assessment was done. Interventions were applied with moderate intensity 3 times a week (10rep/ 3 set per day) for 4 weeks (12 sessions) in both groups. Questionnaire, visual analogue scale (VAS) for pain intensity and neck disability index (NDI) for functional disability was used as data collection tools. Level of significance a= 5 % or 0.05, P value 0.05, Confidence interval0.95 and power 0.8. Sample size was calculated through epitool. \u0000Results: Both VAS and NDI scores showed more improvement in experimental group (isometric neck exercises and stretching with ergonomic modifications) as compared to control group (isometric neck exercises and stretching).

Isometric exercises and stretching cause removal of waste product from neck muscles by improving blood circulation that reduce muscle stiffness and spasm which causes pain relief and improves range of motion and ergonomic modifications improve posture alignment of body that reduce stress, increase muscular balance and reduce muscle spasm.","PeriodicalId":127606,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Riphah College of Rehabilitation Sciences","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-03-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"130649849","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
