MeasureTime frame
NPRS ROM PROPRIOCEPTIONTimepoint: 1. Numerical Pain Rating Scale (NPRS) : Purpose : To assess neck pain intensity 0= No pain 1-3=Mild pain 4-6=Moderate pain 7-10= Severe pain 2.Functional disability was measured using Shoulder Pain and Disability Index, a well validated questionnaire for assessing pain and disability in people with shoulder pain and dysfunction. The questionnaire contains 13 items that assess 2 domains; a 5 item subscale that measures pain and an 8 item subscale that measures disability. The subjects were asked to mark his or her pain level or ability to perform each of the 8 activities and then scoring for Shoulder Pain and Disability Index was done. 3.Shoulder range of motion was measured using half universal goniometer. 4.Shoulder Proprioception Exercises using a laser pointer involve attaching a laser to hand to provide real time visual feedback, improving the joint proprioception—
