Abstract:

Purpose: Iliotibial band tightness can raise the risk of injury by altering biomechanics. ITB tightness leads to abnormal patellar alignment and tracking and causes pain and several other problems. To assess the frequency of iliotibial band tightness and its relation with anterior knee pain in health-care workers Methodology: It was a cross-sectional research conducted from September 2021 to February 2022. Sample size of the study was 210. Study settings included the government and private hospitals of Faisalabad. In order to recruit healthcare providers, a convenient sampling technique

Abstract:

Background- An observational study was conducted on 60 college going students experiencing nonspecific low back pain of mild to moderate range[ on VAS 2-5]. METHOD- Assessment of hamstring and IT band tightness was done by using 90-90 hamstring test and Ober’s test respectively. Participant were checked for tightness and marked whether tightness present or not RESULT- Analysis of outcomes was done by the mean and standard deviation. The result showed that, 58.33% male and 95.85% has female has hamstring muscle tightness. 16.66% Male and 22.91% female has of IT band tightness. 85% population [b

Abstract:

Background: Knee osteoarthritis (OA), also referred to as degenerative joint disease of the knee, is brought on by wear-and-tear and the slow loss of articular cartilage. The term "iliotibial band" (IT band) also refers to the iliotibial tract or Maissiat's band. Methodology: This study was conducted using randomized clinical trial, quasi experimental research design as we need to make 2 groups and evaluate the effects of Iliotibial band myofascial release and stretching on the patients of knee OA. Study population was 36 individuals of ages 50-70 having knee osteoarthritis grade II or III cha

<strong>Abstract</strong> <strong>Background: </strong>Knee osteoarthritis is common degenerative joint disease brought on by wear and tear and progressive loss of articular cartilage. Hamstring muscles have tendency to shorten and tighten in knee osteoarthritis. Decrease in hamstring flexibility in patient with OA causes functional limitation. Therestrictions in fascia are responsible for myofascial trigger point formation which increases the tension in the IT band which results in spot tenderness, muscle and fascial tightness.MFR is a soft tissue mobilization technique. By MFR there is a cha

Abstract:

Abstract Context: The Ober and Thomas tests are subjective and involve a “negative” or “positive” assessment, making them difficult to apply within the paradigm of evidence-based medicine. No authors have combined the subjective clinical assessment with an objective measurement for these special tests. Objective: To compare the subjective assessment of iliotibial band and iliopsoas flexibility with the objective measurement of a digital inclinometer, to establish normative values, and to provide an evidence-based critical criterion for determining tissue tightness. Design: Cross-sectional stud

Abstract:

Background: Anterior knee pain is caused by many factors iliotibial band tightness is one of cause of knee pain. The repeated hip abduction or postural imbalance usually results in contracture and tightness of the iliotibial band. Soft tissue mobilization is hypothesized as one of effective treatment. Instrumented assisted soft tissue (IASTM) technique is a soft tissue mobilizing technique and have remarked effects. Objective: This study's objective was to assess how well IASTM improved hip adduction range of motion (ROM). Methodology: This study was quasi experimental trial. And duration for
