Eligibility

Inclusion criteria

Inclusion criteria: 1) Healthy asymptomatic individual male or female 2) Normal sensory responses in upper and lower limbs 3) Normal pain free and full range of motion- (a) Movements of cervical spine quadrant, glenohumeral abduction and hand behind back, elbow extension, wrist flexion /extension or finger flexion or extension, (b) Movements of thoracic spine, lumbar spine, hip flexion, knee extension and ankle dorsiflexion.

Exclusion criteria

Exclusion criteria: 1) Any medical red flags (Tumour, Fracture, Metabolic disease, rheumatoid arthritis, Osteoporosis, prolong history of steroid use). 2) Bilateral upper extremity symptoms. 3) Evidence of CNS involvement. 4)History of upper or lower extremity parenthesis/ numbness, history of cervical or lumbar pain in the last two years, previous diagnosis of spinal stenosis or disc pathology, history of circulatory or neurological disorder, and history of spine or extremity fracture in the last two years. 5)Subjects were excluded from the study if they had any history of shoulder, elbow, wrist or hand ,hip ,knee or ankle pain or trauma that had required treatment or interrupted their normal daily activity. 6) Additionally, they were rejected from the study if they had suffered from any central or peripheral nervous system disease or systemic arthritidies. 7) Subjects were also liable to exclusion if the pretest screening movements of cervical spine quadrant, glenohumeral abduction and hand behind back, elbow extension , wrist flexion /extension or finger flexion or extension elicitate other than a painless or a normal symmetrical(left, right)stretch sensation.
