“…Based on several studies reporting EMG activity during specific scapular muscle exercises [21][22][23][24][25][26][27][28] and modifications from a previous study, 29 the authors established a progressive algorithm with three phases of strengthening: Phase 1 Neuromuscular education, Phase 2 Resistive with light to moderate loads/ short lever arm, and Phase 3 Resistive with moderate to heavy loads/ long lever arms. The exercises were specifically selected based on % MVIC as well as exercises producing an optimal UT/LT ratios.…”

Scapular muscle weakness in patients with lateral elbow tendinopathy is an identified impairment and is part of a multimodal rehabilitation approach. The published literature provides little information regarding specific rehabilitation guidelines that address both the proximal scapular muscle weakness and local elbow/ wrist dysfunctions common in patients with lateral elbow tendinopathy. The purpose of this clinical commentary is to describe a comprehensive rehabilitation strategy for individuals with lateral elbow tendinopathy. This program emphasizes a phased therapeutic strategy that addresses proximal and local dysfunction along the kinetic chain. This clinical protocol is currently being tested for efficacy as part of a randomized controlled trial. The information in this commentary is intended to provide clinicians with sufficient detail to comprehensively guide the rehabilitation of a patient with lateral elbow tendinopathy.

“…There is no proper treatment guideline for neuropathic pain and a small number of studies describe the effect of exercise training and life style modification on diabetic peripheral neuropathic pain. According to a study, conservative treatment program has a positive and long lasting effect on pain [12]. Another research showed that aerobic exercise training for long time can save patient from neuropathic pain or change the patient's pattern of neuropathic pain by decreasing extent and severity [13].…”

Introduction. This study has been designed to find out the effectiveness of neurodynamic exercises in patients with diabetes mellitus having peripheral neuropathy in upper limb. Methods. This was a case series. Total 40 patients were selected in this study who had diabetes mellitus type II with peripheral neuropathy pain. Consecutive sampling technique was used. Standard Neurodynamic sliders' techniques were applied for Radial, Ulnar and Median nerves in appropriate position by qualified physical therapist for 10 sec with 2 sec rest and 10 repetitions. TENS (80 Hz and 150µ sec) was applied for 20 minutes. Neuropathic pain questionnaire DN 4 was used to collect the data. Pretest and posttest value were calculated using this questionnaire. Paired sample T test was used to compare the pretest and posttest values. Results. There were 31 females and 8 males with peripheral neuropathy in this study. The mean age of the patients was 51.22 ± 6.712 years. The mean value of total pretest was 6.42 ± 1.152 and the mean of total posttest value was 3.68 ± 1.095. Conclusion. Neurodynamic exercises were effective in managing diabetic peripheral neuropathy pain. Neurodynamics techniques for Peripheral Nerve can reduce the diabetes associated peripheral neuropathy symptoms in upper limb.
