Clinical trials

This study is designed to investigate whether a hands-on therapy called Mobilization with Movement (MWM) can reduce pain and inflammation in individuals with knee osteoarthritis (OA). The investigators will compare MWM to a sham treatment that resembles mobilization but does not involve the specific therapeutic movements. Both groups will also receive standard care, including exercise and education about managing knee OA. A total of 40 adults (aged 18 years and older) with moderate to severe knee OA will be enrolled. Participants will be randomly assigned to either the MWM group or the sham group. Each intervention will be delivered twice per week over a four-week period. Outcomes will include measures of inflammation obtained from blood samples, self-reported pain levels, and assessments of knee function before and after the intervention period. It is hypothesized that individuals allocated to the MWM group will demonstrate reduced inflammation and pain compared with those in the sham group. The findings of this study may help clarify the potential role of MWM as a treatment option for knee OA.

The study aimed to determine the effect of mirror therapy versus conventional physical therapy treatment in improving upper extremity impairments and motor function among chronic hemiplegic subjects. Research Objectives: 1. To discover the effectiveness of conventional physical therapy treatment on improving upper limb motor function among chronic hemiplegic subjects. 2. To find out the effect of mirror therapy along with conventional physical therapy treatment on improving upper limb motor function among chronic hemiplegic subjects. 3. To find out the effectiveness of mirror therapy combined with conventional physical therapy treatment versus conventional physical therapy treatment alone on improving upper extremity motor function among chronic hemiplegic subjects.

The purpose of the study is to determine the effect of Modified Constraint-Induced Movement Therapy and trunk restraint contrasted with conventional physical therapy treatment on improving upper extremity function, balance, and quality of life among chronic hemiplegic patients. * To find out the effectiveness of conventional physical therapy treatment on improving upper extremity function, balance, and quality of life among chronic hemiplegic patients. * To find out the effectiveness of modified constraint induced movement therapy (mCIMT) and trunk restraint along with conventional physical therapy treatment on improving upper extremity function, balance, and quality of life among chronic hemiplegic patients. * To find out the effectiveness of modified constraint induced movement therapy (mCIMT) and trunk restraint combined with conventional physical therapy treatment versus conventional physical therapy treatment alone on improving upper extremity function, balance, and quality of life among chronic hemiplegic patients.

1. To find out the effectiveness of conventional physiotherapy on improving functional mobility of lower extremity among chronic hemiplegic subjects. 2. To find out the effcctiveness of motor relearning program along with conventional physical therapy treatment on improving functional mobility of lower extremity among chronic hemiplegic subjects. 3. To find out the effectiveness of motor relearning program along with conventional physical therapy treatment over conventional physical therapy on improving functional mobility of lower extremity among chronic hemiplegic subjects.
