focuses on the comparative efficacy of Neuromobilization techniques, tendon gliding exercises, and their combined application in the management of mild to moderate Carpal Tunnel Syndrome through a randomized controlled trial (RCT)
Aims to provide valuable evidence regarding the comparative and combined effects of Neuromobilization and tendon gliding exercises in managing mild to moderate Carpal Tunnel Syndrome. The findings may help physiotherapists develop optimized treatment strategies for improving pain, hand function, and quality of life among CTS patients.
