Muscle Energy Technique Combined With Mulligan Technique in Tennis Elbow
Sponsor: University of Lahore
Summary
This randomized controlled trial aims to evaluate the effectiveness of Muscle Energy Technique (MET) combined with Mulligan Mobilization With Movement (MWM) in patients with lateral epicondylitis (tennis elbow). The study compares the combined intervention with Mulligan technique and routine physical therapy alone. Outcomes including pain intensity, functional disability, and quality of life will be assessed using NPRS, PRTEE, and SF-8 questionnaires over a four-week treatment period.

Interventions
Muscle Energy Technique Combined With Mulligan Technique
Muscle Energy Technique will be applied using resisted isometric contractions of forearm supination and pronation. Mulligan Mobilization With Movement will be applied using sustained lateral glide during pain-free gripping activity. Treatment sessions will be conducted five times weekly for four weeks.
