Comparison of GT With TF Technique in Patient With Post-Operative Knee Stiffness

The purpose of this study was to compare the effects of Graston Technique and Tissue Flossing Technique in patients with post-operative knee stiffness on pain, range of motion, and functional outcomes. A randomized controlled trial was conducted at Benazir Bhutto Hospital, Rawalpindi. The total sample size was 48, divided into three groups. The study duration was six months. Purposive sampling was applied for recruitment, and group randomization was performed by lottery method. Only patients with post-operative knee stiffness meeting the inclusion criteria were enrolled. Outcome measures included goniometer, Functional Independence Measure (FIM), and Western Ontario and McMaster Universities Osteoarthritis Index (WOMAC) questionnaires. Data was collected at baseline and after interventions, and analysis was performed using SPSS version 23.
