During treatment the compression of floss band was measured with modified sphygmomanometer by placing cuff under floss band (which is applied on muscle) and note the pressure on manometer.~Control Group (Conventional Therapy) Conventional therapy was applied for 23 minutes for both groups which include hot pack for 10 minutes, PNF (hold-relax with agonist contraction): It started with a gentle stretch of bicep muscle for 10 seconds followed by isometric contraction for 6 seconds then the patient tried to flex their elbow and the therapist also assisted."
