Intervention model description: Group 1 Experimental Group 2 Control
Primary purpose: TREATMENT

Brief summary: Goal of this clinical trial is to determine whether Isometric muscle training decrease pain improve function and enhance performance.

Does Isometric exercise improve pain function and performance in bowlers? Researcher will compare the Isometric muscle training with Traditional therapy to examine that isometric exercise work on pain function and performance.

Participants will receive isometric exercises for three days in week and will be followed up after two weeks total four weeks of trial(experimental group).

Participants will receive traditional physical therapy treatment three days of week and followed up after two weeks total four weeks of trail (contril group)

Detailed description: This research is critical for addressing a common health concern and providing evidence-based recommendations for a potentially effective and accessible intervention that can significantly enhance the quality of life and performance of individuals dealing with shoulder pain. Thesis will benefit the bowlers by increasing their performance by enhancing accuracy, speed and consistency and over all shoulder health. Because shoulder discomfort is so common and has such a detrimental influence on everyday activities and performance, research on how isometric muscle training affects shoulder pain, function, and performance is crucial. In a variety of settings, isometric training has demonstrated promise in enhancing musculoskeletal function and pain management; however, its precise influence on shoulder-related problems is yet unknown.
