Fin Wax Bath Therapy in Patients With Post-traumatic Stiffness of Knee Joint: A Randomized Controlled Trial

technique was implemented with three sets of ten repetitions on each treatment occasion for a period of 3 days/ week for 8 weeks. In this group, the adjustable couch was used to treat the patients effectively. During MWM, position of the patients was prone lying and high sitting position with swinging bilateral leg out of the couch at available various range of motion of affected knee joint. In prone lying position, the therapist was stand just behind the patient towards the affected knee joint. The mulligan belt placed at proximal tibia ends which already wrapped with the lower back of the therapist. In high or couch sitting position, the therapist was sitting on rest chair. The method using of mulligan belt was same as in prone lying position. After stabilization, the mobilization with movement (MWM) started in order with the therapist mobilized the knee joint followed by active movement of knee joint performed by the patients

Group B will receive Paraffin Wax Bath Therapy in combination with standard care exercises. In this treatment, the affected knee joint will be immersed in warm paraffin wax to deliver thermotherapy, which helps reduce joint stiffness, improve circulation, and enhance joint mobility. Each paraffin wax session will last 15-20 minutes. Following the thermotherapy, participants will perform standard care exercises targeting knee mobility, flexibility, and strength. These sessions will also occur 3 times per week over a period of 8 weeks.
