Abstract

To study the comparison between the immediate effect of muscle energy technique v/s deep stripping massage with eccentric resistance in calves tightness in young adults Background of the study Calves tightness is a typical musculoskeletal condition in young people as a result of extended standing, walking, or jogging. A variety of treatments are available to alleviate such discomfort, including MET (Muscle Energy Technique) and Deep Stripping Method with eccentric resistance. This article investigates and analyses which of these therapies might be more beneficial on young adults. To conduct such a study, we gathered 30 young individuals and randomly separated them into two groups of 15 each. GROUP A would have had MET as their intervention, whereas GROUP B would have received deep stripping massage with eccentric resistance as their intervention. The ankle ROM (dorsiflexion) was used as the outcome measure. The universal Goniometer was used to assess the ankle dorsiflexion ROM before and after therapy. The impact of both regimens was observed and statistically analysed.
