Effectiveness of Manurak Therapy in Increasing Range of Motion and Reducing Pain in Wrist Injury Patients
Everyday activities are impacted by wrist injuries, which are widespread in society. Manurak treatment can be used to treat wrist injuries. Stretching exercises and PNF are added to massage as part of Manurak therapy (both manual and motor). This study sought to ascertain how well Manurak therapy worked to improve range of motion and lessen wrist injury discomfort. Using a single-group pretest-posttest design and a pre-experimental research design, the study employed a quantitative descriptive methodology. Patients with wrist injuries served as the study's subjects, and 21 participants in all attended Mafaza massage treatment courses. A Neumerik analogue pain scale and a goniometer for assessing range of motion (ROM) were the tools employed in this investigation. The duration of the Manurak therapy session was thirty minutes. With a significance level of p<0.05, the paired t-test was the method used to analyze the data for this study. The study's findings demonstrated that the pretest and posttest differed significantly. For the pretest pain measurements, the mean values were efferent 43.52°, flexion 74.38°, extension 73.76°, extrapolation 33.38°, and 65.29. Pain was 42.33, flexion was 82.29°, extension was 81.33°, extrapolation was 39.71°, and efferent was 50.81°, according to the posttest mean results. With power levels of 35.16% for pain, 10.63% for flexion, 10.26% for extension, 18.96% for extrapolation, and 16.75% for efferent, the paired t-test results were significant at the 0.000 level. According to the study's findings, Manurak therapy can help patients with wrist injuries by increasing their range of motion (ROM) and reducing their pain.
