The subjects were divided into two Groups MFR (Group A) & DTFM (Group B). Pain was used to measure NPS, ROM of shoulder joint was used to measure by goniometer and functional ability was used to measure DASH questionnaire. The result of the present study indicates that the within group analysis for NPS, ROM and DASH both the groups showed significant difference. Between group analysis for NPS, ROM and DASH showed no statistically difference. The present study concluded that both the techniques i.e, MFR and DTFM are equally effective in reducing pain, improving ROM and functional ability with chronic bicipital tendonitis
