The envelopes contained the slips labeled "TFM" and "US" (equal in number). The individual having TFM slip envelope were assigned the group of Transverse Friction Massage along with Eccentric Exercise. The individual having US slip envelope were assigned the group of Ultrasound Therapy along with Eccentric Exercise, Blinding description: Outcome assessor was masked of treatment given to the participants and group allocation. he was unaware of the group from which the participant come for assessment. N/A Achilles Tendinopathy is a common clinical pathology causing pain swelling, inflammation and decreased ROM at tendon due to prolonged standing, dysfunction and inflammation of tendon in athletes and common people.. Intervention 1: Intervention no. 1: (Group A) participants were treated with Transverse Frictional message along with Eccentric exercises. Unilateral, heavy-load, eccentric plantarflexion training program for 6 sets of 15 repetitions, twice per day, 7 days per week, performed on a step and individually target the gastrocnemius and soleus by being performed (for 3 sets) with the knee held in extension, and (for 3 sets) in slight knee flexion. TFM was applied over a 3cm- 5cm rectangular area for approximately 3 min medial-to-lateral over TA by thumb. at the rate of 0.5Hz. Intervention 2: Intervention no. 2: (Group B) participants were treated with ultrasonic therapy along with Eccentric exercises. Unilateral, heavy-load, eccentric plantarflexion training program for 6 sets of 15 repetitions, twice per day, 7 days per week, performed on a step and individually target the gastrocnemius and soleus by being performed (for 3 sets) with the knee held in extension, and (for 3 sets) in slight knee flexion. Participants in the Ultrasound group received US consisting of a 2ms burst of 1.0MHzsine waves repeating at 100 Hz. Yes - There is a plan to make this available What will be shared: EFFECTS OF ULTRASOUND THERAPY VERSUS TRANSVERSE FRICTION MASSAGE ALONG WITH ECCENTRIC EXERCISE PROGRAM ON CHRONIC ACHILLES TENDINOPATHY When: study is completed and become available after its publication To whom: person in clinical/academic field. Patient data will not be shown. Conditions: under the usage with terms in which journal is accessed /processed for publication it could be used in request. Where to obtain: +923207866611 from the University office and Responsible supervisor and from journal we will process in future How to obtain: email Comments: data can be provided on request
