Aim of the study: The aim of the study is to find out the effect of suboccipital muscle inhibition technique for improving hamstring length in patients with hamstring tightness. Method of Study: 30 male subjects were selected randomly with the age limit of 20 to 40 years with hamstring tightness, received the treatment (suboccipital muscle inhibition) for 5 minutes. Outcome measures are assessed before and immediately after the treatment by using popliteal angle test and forward flexion distance test. Result: Data analyzed and result indicates that there was a significant improvement in hamstring length in patients treated with suboccipital muscle inhibition technique. Conclusion: From the study it was concluded that the suboccipital muscle inhibition technique significantly improves the length of the hamstring in patients with hamstring tightness.
