Objective: To study the Perceived stress in physiotherapy students as per questionnaire along with assessment of corroborative clinical parameters and perceived stress score.Method: A cross-sectional, questionnaire based survey was carried out among undergraduate physiotherapy students of Padmashree Dr. D. Y. Patil college of physiotherapy, Pune, India. Perceived stress was assessed using the perceived stress scale (PSS 10). A 27-item questionnaire was used to assess sources of stress and their severity. Another 11-item questionnaire was used to find possible institutional stress reducing factors.
Results: Of the physiotherapy students who were administered the questionnaire, 71 (74%) respondents participated in this study. The mean age ± standard deviation (SD) of the study participants was 19.39 ± 1.12 years, with a range of 18-23 years. Out of the 71 students, 57 (80.3%) were female students and 14 (19.7%) were male students. The mean PSS score was 20.50 (SD 5.96). The main sources of stress were found to be related to physical, emotional and academic factors. The main institutional stress reducing factors were picnics (59.2%), vacations (56.3%), interaction with friends (52.1%), and personal hobbies (54.9%).
Conclusion: High levels of perceived stress were found in Physiotherapy students. The physical, emotional and academic factor causes stress in little to great extent.

Aim: To find out the effect of Strain-Counterstrain technique on pain and functional restriction due to active myofascial trigger point in upper trapezius muscle.
Objectives: To assess the pain and function of subjects with active myofascial trigger point in upper trapezius using Visual Analogue Scale and Neck Disability Index, respectively.
Methodology: This is a Quasi experimental study with sample size of 24. Subjects with Active myofascial trigger point in upper trapezius are included by using Convenience sampling and subjects with Open wounds, Sutures, Healing Fractures, Hematoma, Systemic or Local Infection, Hypersensitivity of the Skin are excluded. Baseline data was collected by assessing pain and function. Same therapist treated all Subjects for 6 days consecutively by Strain-Counterstrain technique. Pain was assessed daily pre and post treatment for 6 days and function was assessed after 6th day.
Data Analysis: Data was analysed using Wilcoxon Signed rank test for Neck disability index and Paired t-test for Visual Analogue Scale.
Results: There was a statistically significant reduction in pain and improvement in neck function after application of strain-Counterstrain technique at p=0.001.
Conclusion: Results suggests that Strain- Counterstrain technique is useful in relieving the pain and improving functional abilities in patients with active myofascial trigger points in upper trapezius.

Introduction– Myofascial pain syndrome (MPS) is a myalgic condition in which muscle and musculotendinous pain are the primary symptoms. Some muscles are likely to develop Myofascial trigger points in cases of lateral epicondylitis and become possible cause of mainstay of symptoms. Hence the study was undertaken to find the prevalence of myofascial trigger points in such muscles.
Methodology & Results – 40 individuals aged between 20-50 years fulfilling the inclusion criteria were selected for the study with acute and chronic lateral epicondylitis. Brachioradialis, Biceps Brachii, Triceps Brachii, Supinator and Extensor carpi radialis brevis were checked for the presence of trigger point by palpation. Pressure algometer was used to check the pain threshold of each point. When the subject reports feeling pain the action of pressure is stopped and reading is recorded.
Results showed a higher prevalence in females than males. The most prevalent area for trigger point was the brachioradialis followed by biceps brachii, extensor carpi radialis, triceps brachii and the least prevalent was the supinator.
Conclusion - This study provides that the relation between myofascial trigger points in lateral epicondylitis is relatively high especially in Brachioradialis, It also shows that latent trigger points don’t lead to severe functional disability.

Introduction – Fitness is important for all. To reduce the incidence of injuries in the gymnasium going people, especially in weight lifters, proper training should be given. For giving proper training, proper musculoskeletal assessment is required. This study is an effort to access various components of fitness in young gym going people.
Methodology & Results – 50 gymnasium going males with minimum 3 months of gymnasium training and age 18-24 years participated in present observational study.Upper limb muscular strength and muscular endurance were recorded using bench press and push up test. Also for flexibility grading, shoulder wrist elevation test was done.
For upper limb maximum participants have shown good muscular strength and above average muscular endurance though flexibility was found average only.
Conclusion - The general muscular fitness was seen in the average category in young gym going people.

Background - Childhood obesity is a major health problem in many developing countries, including India. As a result, overweight and obese children achieve fewer opportunities to develop proficient motor skills. Early assessment should be done to evaluate children having poor coordination problem and early intervention should be given to avoid risk of any neuromotor disturbances later. This study is done to find out the level of motor proficiency in terms of Body coordination, strength and agility in overweight and obese school going children aged 7-12 years using BOT-2 test.
Method: A cross sectional analytical study was conducted using BOT-2 long form. Purposive sampling of 54 overweight and obese children (32 males and 22 females) aged 7-12 years who met the inclusion criteria were taken for the study and assessed under 2 motor area composite of BOT -2. The study was conducted after the ethical clearance obtained by the institutional ethical committee. Each task was explained verbally and demonstrated to each student, to ensure proper understanding of the task.
Results: 54 children were assessed (59.2% males and 40.8% females) and standard score of the BOT -2 test was calculated which signifies the level of proficiency. For Body coordination component mean standard score of 45.07 and for strength and agility component it was 37.79.
Conclusion: This study concludes that according to Descriptive Category of BOT -2 test in Body coordination 33%, in Strength and agility 74% of overweight and obese children aged 7-12 years has motor deficits.

Study design: Pre-post experimental study design. Background: The presence of trigger points over trapezius muscle is one of the major reasons of injuries in badminton players. Trigger points affect the flexibility of muscles which if untreated leads to dysfunctions. This alters the biomechanics of badminton gameplay. Objective: Hence, present study was undertaken to find out and compare the effects of Instrument Assisted Soft Tissue Mobilization and ischemic compression in trapezius trigger points in badminton players. Procedure: In this study, 30 participants were recruited based on inclusion and exclusion criteria. They were divided in 2 groups of 15 each. Each intervention was administered to them for a period of 2 weeks, 2 sessions per week in respective groups. Pre and post assessment was taken using following outcome measures-NPRS, pain pressure threshold and cervical range of motion. Results: There was significant increase in the pain pressure threshold of the players and the cervical range of motion in the IASTM group. There was decrease in the NPRS findings in the IASTM group. Conclusion: The results suggested that IASTM showed better results than ischemic compression in relieving trapezius trigger points.Keywords
