Abstract

Background: Sprinter is a person who runs very fast over a short distance in a race. In this study we determine
the effect of Instrument Assisted Soft Tissue Manipulation (IASTM) vs THERAGUN separately on triceps surae
muscle to check the Active Range of Motion and Functional Movement in sprinters of age group 18- 25 years.
Methods: Study design: Experimental study (pre-test and post-test design). Sampling Technique: The subjects
were selected by Random Sampling. Source of Data: Universities of Patiala & Ludhiana Districts.
Conclusion: The study examined the effect of IASTM and THERAGUN which shows significant changes in the
Active Range of Motion & functional movement.
