INCLUSION CRITERIA: Patient's with Positive Ober’s Test ,both males and females and age 25 to 45 years
EXCLUSION CRITERIA: Patient's with TFL (Tensor Fascia Lata) tightness ,any pathological and traumatic conditions, Fractures and Dislocation.

Then the therapist applied a few kilograms of force weight along the iliotibial band course proximally to distally. The therapist will repeat this for 6 minutes.
Group B will receive manual myofascial release and the Emmett intervention with the subject sitting upright light, constant pressure via the middle finger (at a perpendicular angle to the skin) will be applied at both points, three times for 10-20s with 5-10s breaks between. After that the subject will be instructed to walk around the room for a minute.
Main outcome variables
Numeric pain rating scale, Goniometer and vertical jump test are used for assessing pain, flexibility of Iliotibial band and power of lower limb respectively.

Description of health condition studied
Iliotibial band syndrome (ITBS) is a common knee injury that usually presents with pain or tenderness on palpation of the lateral aspect of the knee, superior to the joint line and inferior to the lateral femoral epicondyle. This overuse injury often causes weakness of hip abductor muscles and decreased range of motion of hip adductors.

Description
Intervention Group A after a 20 minutes of hot pack will receive Manual myofascial release to iliotibial band by having the subject to lie in the side lying position on the unaffected side. The upper leg to be tested was rested on the table with hip and knee flexion. Then the therapist applied a few kilograms of force weight along the iliotibial band course proximally to distally. The therapist will repeat this for 6 minutes.

Description
Intervention group B after a 20 minutes of hot pack B will receive manual myofascial release and the Emmett intervention with the subject sitting upright on a 45cm wooden chair; light, constant pressure via the middle finger (at a perpendicular angle to the skin) will be applied at both points, three times for 10-20s with 5-10s breaks between. A light sweeping action over the sensory area that will treated will be performed once, using the back of the fingers. The rationale for this is that the light brushing action “disperses the sensory awareness to move without being too heavy or specific enough to create muscular response.” The sequence performed on one side will then repeated on the opposite leg. In Ross Emmett’s teachings of the technique he insists on treatment of both sides when focusing on the lower body (for balance). Once both sides will be completed, the subject will be instructed to walk around the room for a minute.
