In this study, investigator will see the effects of neural mobilization in comparison to the muscle energy technique in the patients suffering from sciatica. Impact of the these two interventional techniques , there out come measures i.e pain, range of motion and functional disability.
This study is aimed in comparison among two interventional techniques i.e neural mobilization and muscle energy technique patients with sciatica. This study will be a randomized controlled trial with double blinded protocol, patients will be randomly allocated in to the two groups. one is the neural mobilization technique group and other is the muscle energy technique group. both of the groups have the conventional physical therapy in addition to these two interventions. data will be collect from the patients.30 minutes session twice a week will be given to the patients in each group. assessment will be done by using visual analog scale, Goniometer, Modified Oswestry Disability Index. Data will be entered and analyzed by using SPSS.

| Label | Type | Description | Intervention Names |
|---|---|---|---|
| Neural mobilization | Active Comparator | Patient in this study group will get 30 minutes session, twice weekly for 6 weeks. Neural mobilization technique will be applied to the subjects in addition to conventional treatment. |
|
| Muscle energy technique | Experimental | Patient in this study group will get 30 minutes session, twice weekly for 6 weeks. Muscle energy technique will be applied to the subjects in addition to conventional treatment. |

| Neural mobilization | Other | Mobilization of the structures within and around the nervous system is broadly known as Neural Mobilization. |
|
| Measure | Description | Time Frame |
|---|---|---|
| Visual Analogue Scale | For the assessment of pain, Visual Analogue Scale will be used. it is 0 to 10 cm where 0 means no pain 10 means sever pain | 6 weeks |
| Goniometry | For the documentation of range of motion, straight leg raise test (SLR) will be used. For this purpose goniometer will use. | 6 weeks |
| Modified Oswestry Disability Index | For the assessment of functional disability Modified Oswestry Disability Index will be used. | 6 weeks |

The study would be double-blind as the identity of the patient's group will not be revealed to the assessor and the patient will also be un-aware of the group to which they will be allocated.
| Muscle energy technique | Other | Manual therapy technique initially developed and used by the osteopaths is known as Muscle energy techniques(MET).This technique is effective for the pain reduction, lengthening of the shortened muscle and fascia, improvement in blood circulation and promoting lymph drainage. |
