Brief Summary:
This study aims to assess the effectiveness of IASTM on pain ROM Disability and Quality of life among Piriformis Syndrome patients This study will add to the growing body of knowledge as there are very limited researches done in Pakistan using IASTM in patients with Piriformis Syndrome
Detailed Description:
Instrument assisted soft tissue mobilization IASTM is a skilled intervention that includes the use of specialized tools to manipulate the skin myofascia muscles and tendons by various direct compressive stroke techniques It has neurophysiological effect as it stimulates mechanosensitive neurons through skin deformation by using instrument IASTM affects the vascular response to the injured soft tissue through increasing the blood flow reduce the stress and strain to the injured areas decrease inflammation increase muscle flexibility and strength increase blood flow break up scar tissue promote proper tissue repair enhance functional movements accelerates fibroblast activity
In 2022 there is a study that stated the overall Prevalence of piriformis muscle syndrome which is 183 The MeanSD of exact BMI were 27436859 Male and female Pace sign were 142 and 183 positive respectively
Positive Prevalence of piriformis muscle syndrome in the general population in Age groups chi-square value is 47753b and P- Value 0001
A 2018 study determined that Hip abductor and extensor strengthening along with neural mobilization and piriformis stretching have significant effect on improving hip abductor strength and lower extremity function when compared with neural mobilization and piriformis stretching alone in patients with Piriformis syndrome
Another study conducted in 2022 showed the effects of IASTM in discogenic Sciatica along with neural mobilization and lumbar traction and concluded that IASTM alleviated pain and impairments in patients with sciatic nerve entrapment Whereas this study will assess the effectiveness of IASTM in non discogenic causes of piriformis syndrome
A 2016 study showed the efficacy of manual therapy interventions for improving the signs and symptoms of carpal tunnel syndrome by comparing 2 manual therapy techniques Graston Instrument-assisted soft tissue mobilization GISTM and soft tissue mobilization for mild to moderate cases of CTS Results shows improvements in both groups with pain nerve conduction latencies wrist strength and ROM This study will only assess the effectiveness of IASTM on pain ROM disability and quality of life among patients with piriformis syndrome
Reference article showed efficacy by comparing 2 manual therapy techniques GISTM and STM in management of carpal tunnel syndrome There is significant improvement in wrist strength and ROM with IASTM application as it increases muscle flexibility and strength improves blood flow breaks up adhesions reduce stress to injured area enhance functional movements increase fibroblastic activity and decreases inflammation Current study will only assess effectiveness of IASTM on pain ROM functional disability and QOL among patients with piriformis syndrome No evidence in previous studies shows efficacy of IASTM with Graston tool in management of piriformis syndrome Hence this study will show effectiveness of IASTM on pain ROM disability and quality of life in patients with piriformis syndrome
