It is perhaps the most widely recognizedissue females face, influencing them physically and mentally. Connective tissue mobilization can help venous return by increasing theproduction of prostaglandin and different substances and preventing their collection in the pelvis, which can be powerful during the period,to reduce the pain aggravation and inconvenience. This study examines the effects of connective tissue mobilization vs. a combination oftaping and pelvic tilt on unmarried women with primary dysmenorrhea. This is an experimental design with pre and post-comparativestudy. This was conducted in the physiotherapy outpatient department at ACS Medical College and Hospital. The study duration was about3 months. The subjects aged 18 to 25 years female with primary dysmenorrheal were included in this study. The subject with Pelvicinflammatory disease, Uterine/ovarian tumor, Spinal pathology, deformit...

The objective of the study was to show the effectiveness of aerobic exercise with shortwave diathermy versus strengthening exercise with shortwave diathermy for people with OA. Methodology: It was an experimental study with pre and post comparative test type. The Study was conducted at physiotherapy OPD, ACS Hospital, Chennai. 30 subjects of both male and female with age group of 50 to 60 years with a clinical diagnosis of Osteoarthritis were randomly selected and equally divided into two groups. Group A received aerobic exercise with shortwave diathermy and Group B received strengthening exercise with shortwave diathermy for 3 sessions per week for 6 weeks. WOMAC, osteoarthritis index and sit to stand test were used as outcome measures. Results: Comparative study between Group A and Group B showed a significant difference in knee function with P value >0.0001. Conclusion: The study concluded that strengthening exercise with shortwave diathermy was more effective than aerobic exercise with shortwave diathermy on knee function among OA patients.

Hence, the need for the study is to determine the prevalence of diastasis recti abdominis at postpartum period. The aim of the study is to increase the abdominal strength among postpartum women with DRAM (Diastasis Recti Abdominis Muscle) by abdominal and pelvic floor exercise along with Kinesiotaping (KT). Methodology: A total of 50 subjects with diastasis recti were selected based on selection criteria, divided into two groups – group A with 25 subjects who have undergone Normal Vaginal Delivery (NVD) and group B with 25 subjects who have undergone Lower Section Caesarian Section (LSCS). The reason for the review was disclosed to the patient and definite concern was acquired, in view of particular testing technique. Pre-tests were done using Vernier calipers, followed with pre-test intervention procedures started with abdomen exercises (Abdominal tuck-in), SLR (Straight Leg Raise) and ...
