Hamstrings and suboccipital muscles are connected by one neural system. Abnormal lower extremity neuro-dynamics may alter resting muscle length and changes in the perception of stretch or pain. As neural flossing technique alter such sensation and improve hamstring flexibility. Hence in this study we aim to study the combined effect of suboccipital muscle inhibition and neural flossing technique on hamstring flexibility in young adults. Objectives: To study combined effect of suboccipital muscle inhibition and neural flossing technique on flexibility of hamstring pre and post intervention using modified sit and reach test and active knee extension test and pain using NPRS. Materials and Methodology: A study with Pre Post experimental design included 100 volunteers according to inclusion and exclusion criteria were selected by simple random sampling method. Intervention in form of suboccipital inhibition and neural flossing techniques was given thrice a week for period of 2 weeks. Data was documented on 1 st , 3 rd and 7 th day of each week. Pre and post intervention hamstring flexibility was assessed. Results: Comparison of pre and post intervention data was done, results showed the p-value was <0.001 which was extremely significant. Conclusion: Hamstring tightness and stretch pain reduced significantly when combination of suboccipital muscle inhibition and neural flossing technique was given in young adults.
