Shoulder pain is a common and disabling complaint. The reported annual incidence of shoulder pain in primary care is 14.7 per 1000 patients per year with a lifetime prevalence of up to 70%.Fascial Manipulation technique are effective in reducing pain in chronic shoulder dysfunctions. The anatomical substratum of the myofascial continuity has been documented by dissections and the biomechanical models. Hence, this study focussed on understanding the effectiveness of finger fanning technique of K CATconcept, to improve the shoulder mobility by enhancing scapular dyskinesia.Pre- Post experimentaldesign and random sampling method adopted and sample size estimated to be 50, and 50 patients recruited for this interventional study.Pain, Shoulder Range of Motion (ROM) and morphometric width assessed at baseline and post intervention by, Visual Analogue Scale (VAS),Goniometer and ultrasonogram.Though classical anatomy still relegates muscular fascia to a role of contention. This study proves thatactivation of this resilient tissue and modulation of finger fanning of KCAT reduces shoulder pain. Coracoid process- Lesser tubercle width is increased and scapular dyskinesia is controlled which in turn facilitates improved shoulder ROM with a single session of finger fanning technique of K CAT concept.
