Brief Summary

To determine the effects of mulligan's bent leg raise technique on hamstring flexibility and lumber spine mobility in healthy females

Conditions

Hamstring Contractures

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (2)

• Active Knee Extension Test (AKET)

  The subject lies supine on a firm table with their head back and arms folded across the chest. The hip is passively flexed until the thigh is vertical - use the spirit level to measure the position of the thigh. The opposite leg is placed in a fully extended position on the table.

  10 days

• Modified Schobber's Test

  The validity of the modified-modified Schober test is moderate (r=0.67) with an excellent interclass (r=0.91) and intraclass (r=95) reliability

  10 days

Interventions

Mulligan Bent Leg Raise Technique OTHER

Participant will be in supine lying on a high couch with the resting on the shoulder. A distraction (longitudinal traction force along the long axis of femur) will be investigator in walk stand position lateral to the leg, which to be stretch. Hip and Knee of the side to be stretch will bent at 90˚- 90 ˚. Participant's flexed knee will be placed over the shoulder, the popliteal fossa of the knee applied at the lower end of femur and the participant will ask to push the shoulder with his or her leg followed by voluntary relaxation.The traction will maintained throughout the technique.

Mulligan's bent leg raise Technique

Static Stretching OTHER

It will be given in supine position by performing passive SLR and end range will hold in 30sec.
