Keys: Post Hoc Least significant difference mean mode with different alphabet (a,b,c,d,e f,g,h,I,j,k) shows significant difference but means of the same alphabet shows no significant different. Pnd = Difference in pain intensity, Did = Difference in Disability, FROMd = Difference in Flexion range of motion. 1 = Difference in Pretreatment and 2nd week, 2 = Difference in pretreatment and 4th week, 3 = Difference in pretreatment and 6th week. 4 = Difference in 2nd week and 4th week, 5 difference in 2nd week and 6th week and 6 = Difference in 4th week and 6th week of intervention
