Brief Summary

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

The purpose of this study is to look into how Mulligan's bent leg raise technique and Bowen's technique affect the functional abilities and range of motion of hamstring-tight Kabaddi players. Our goal is to add to the expanding body of knowledge on sports rehabilitation by investigating the efficacy of various interventions and offering evidence-based suggestions for improving the health and performance of Kabaddi participants

Detailed Description

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

Few studies have been conducted to compare bowen's technique and Mulligan bent leg raise technique kabaddi players to enhance hamstring flexibility. Present study will seek to fill this gap by comparing the effects of Bowen's technique with mulligan bent leg raise technique in enhancing hamstring flexibility and functionality. Moreover, this study would ultimately aid coaches in designing effective training program for kabaddi players.
