U.S., Nov. 10 -- ClinicalTrials.gov registry received information related to the study (NCT07925320) titled 'Comparing Strain Counterstrain and Active Release for Piriformis Syndrome' on Nov. 03.

Brief Summary: Piriformis syndrome is a neuromuscular disorder causing buttock pain and sciatic nerve irritation, leading to functional limitations. This study aims to compare the effectiveness of two manual therapy techniques-Strain Counterstrain (SCS) and Active Release Technique (ART)-on pain, functional disability, and hip range of motion in patients with piriformis syndrome.
