The rotator cuff syndrome is developed in the subacromial area by compression between the humerus and the coracoacromial arc of the long head of the subacromial bursa and the biceps tendon. The diagnosis of rotator cuff tendonitis and Bursitis is made on the basis of special tests and Examination. The rotator cuff tendons undergo degenerative alterations, the tendons between the humeral head and the coracoacromial arch are compressed and ischemia caused by impingement or elevated intramuscular pressure is all aspects of the physiopathology of RCS.~Highly exposed workers have frequently had RCS associated with biomechanical, psychological, and organizational aspects examined; this could affect generalizations to the entire working population who are exposed to varying degrees of work-related shoulder restrictions. The relationship between work structure and the risk of shoulder illnesses has been rarely investigated. Although various individual factors can raise the incidence of shoulder discomfort and RCS, biomechanical factors are significantly linked to both conditions (e.g., age).~Neer defined the syndrome as impingement of the rotator cuff tendons against the coracoacromial ligament, the anterior edge and undersurface of the anterior part of the acromion, and, often, the acromioclavicular joint. There is consensus that risk factors for shoulder MSDs are upper arm elevation and repeated or prolonged overhead activities in combination with other biomechanical variables (e.g., repetition, force). There is less proof that excessive repetition or rigid shoulder positions are separate risk factors.~The main focus in Rotator Cuff syndrome management is on promoting self-management, reducing pain, optimize function, and modifying the disease process and its effects. The primary treatment for Rotator Cuff syndrome conservatively is physiotherapy which includes strength training, modalities, resistance training and Kinesiotaping. Resistance exercise can reduce Shoulder pain severity and strength in participants with symptomatic Shoulder RCS. Exercise is suggested as the first-line intervention of choice with comparable outcomes but at a lower cost and with fewer associated hazards than surgical therapy in recent randomized controlled studies and systematic reviews. Despite this, there is little evidence that explains what an effective exercise programmed looks like in terms of the kind of exercise, the number of sets and repetitions, tolerable pain levels, duration, and environment.~Mulligan's mobilization with movement (MWM) is a joint mobilization treatment in which the patient actively engages in the uncomfortable action while receiving a manual accessory glide to one of the joint surfaces. Recent research found that in asymptomatic people applying MWM with a postero-lateral glide resulted in less muscular activity in the shoulder muscles . In accordance with Cyriax, Transverse friction massage leads in traumatic hyperemia, which boosts blood flow and lessens discomfort. It also stimulates mechanoreceptors and enhances tissue perfusion.
The aim of this research is to determine the Effects of Mulligan Mobilization and Transverse Friction Massage in Rotator Cuff Syndrome. Randomized clinical trials will be done at Northwest General Hospital, Peshawar. The sample size is 42. The subjects were divided in two groups, with 21 subjects in Group A and 21 in Group B. Study duration was of 6 months. Sampling technique applied was Non probability Purposive Sampling technique. Both males and females of aged 30-70 years with rotator cuff syndrome from grade (0-3) were included. Tools used in the study are Visual Analogue Scale (VAS), Goniometer, and DASH (Disabilities of the Arm, Shoulder and Hand) questionnaire. Data was analyzed through SPSS 23.
