Baseline assessment will be done. Group A participants will be given baseline treatment along with tissue flossing. Group B participants will be given stretching exercises along with baseline treatment for two weeks, 3 sessions per week. Post intervention assessment will be done via, Numeric pain rating scale(NPRS),Shoulder Pain And Disability Index (SPADI) and goniometric measurements of shoulder ranges.
