Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The aim of the study is to determine the effect of muscle energy technique versus myofascial release on cervical and lumbar pain in premenopausal women with fibromyalgia

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

Fibromyalgia is an idiopathic, non articular pain syndrome with generalized tender points. It is multisystem disease characterized by sleep disturbance and fatigue. It affect 5% of the world population. The incidence is higher in women than in men. And the age is between 30 and 35 years old.

Study Groups

Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.

Myofascial release

The patients will receive myofascial release technique on cervical and lumbar regions three times per week for four weeks

Group Type EXPERIMENTAL

Myofascial release

Intervention Type OTHER

Is Facilitation of mechanical and neurological adaptive capacity as integrated through the Myofascial system

Muscle energy technique

The patients will receive muscle energy technique for cervical and lumbar regions three times per week for four weeks

Group Type EXPERIMENTAL

Muscle energy technique

Intervention Type OTHER

Is manual therapy procedure that involves alternating periods of resisted muscle contraction and assisted stretching
