Brief Summary

To rule out the effects bone mobilization and neural mobilization in Carpal Tunnel Syndrome.

Conditions

Carpal Tunnel Syndrome

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (3)

• Visual analogue scale

  A Visual Analogue Scale is a measurement instrument that tries to measure a characteristic or attitude that is believed to range across a continuum of values and cannot easily be directly measured. It is often used in epidemiologic and clinical research to measure the intensity or frequency of various symptoms.

  12th Week

• Dynamometer

  It is a small device that the examiner holds against the patient's limb as the patient exerts a maximal force. The examiner counters the force "make test", or tries to break the contraction "break test".

  12th Week

• Boston questionnaire

  The Boston Carpal Tunnel Score is a patient-reported questionnaire that examines symptom severity and overall functional status of patients with carpal tunnel syndrome.

  12th Week

Study Arms (2)

Neural mobilization

EXPERIMENTAL

Neural mobilization will be given for 15 minutes with 3 repetitions. After mobilization, Kinesio taping will be applied and it will bandage till the next session.

Other: Neural mobilization

Scaphoid, hamate mobilization

EXPERIMENTAL

Scaphoid and hamate mobilization for 20 minutes, at the end of session kinesio taping will bandage till the next session.

Other: Scaphoid , hamate mobilization

Interventions

Neural mobilization OTHER

Neural mobilization and bone are two common physical therapy interventions used for Carpal Tunnel Syndrome. Neural mobilization reinstates the plasticity of the nervous system and restoring the capacity of stretching.

Neural mobilization

Scaphoid , hamate mobilization OTHER

Bone mobilization in Carpal Tunnel Syndrome involves gliding at scaphoid and hamate.

Scaphoid, hamate mobilization
