ABSTRACT
Aim and Objective: The aim of this study was to compare the immediate effect of muscle energy technique and cyclic stretching technique on hamstring tightness in college going students within age group 18-25 years.
Methods: A comparative study was conducted on 64 college going students within age group 18-25 years. Subjects were selected according to inclusion criteria & exclusion criteria. The pre assessment was taken before intervention & post assessment was taken immediately after intervention by using Active knee extension test (AKET). Participants were randomly divided into two groups with n=32 in each group. Group A received Muscle Energy Technique while Group B received Cyclic Stretching Technique. Statistical analysis was carried out using paired & unpaired t test.
Results: Muscle energy technique and cyclic stretching technique was effective on improving AKET in college-going students. On intergroup comparison using unpaired t test, there was no significant difference between effect of Muscle energy technique & Cyclic stretching technique, which implies both techniques were equally effective on improving AKET in college-going students.
Conclusion: Muscle Energy Technique and Cyclic Stretching Technique were equally effective in improving hamstring flexibility in college-going students within age group 18-25 years with hamstring tightness.
Keywords:
Hamstring tightness, Muscle energy technique, cyclic stretching technique, active knee extension test, college-going students.
