The duration of treatment was 3 weeks (9 sessions) in both groups. Primary outcome measures included SPADI and ROM. Results: Overall subjects improved in both groups over 3 weeks. Statistically significant improvement was found in both Cyriax soft tissue release technique and Myofascial release technique in terms of ROM and shoulder function. Additionally, in between the groups Myofascial release technique showed statistically significant improvement in ROM and shoulder function than the Cyriax soft tissue release technique group.
