Background: The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of between modified mulligan technique and modified mulligan technique with taping on the active range of motion & passive range of motion, scapula index into the stroke patients. Methods: The subjects with s troke were randomly divided into two groups. Group 1 (n=9) was conducted modified mulligan technique and Group 2 (n=9) was conducted modified mulligan technique with taping week thre e times for 4weeks. Active range of motion (AROM), passive range of motion (PROM) and scap ula index (SI) were measured by goniometer and tape measure. Wilcoxon signed-rank tests wer e used to compare differences before and after intervention. Mann-Whitney U-test were conduc ted to compare before to after intervention in the two groups. Results: AROM was significantly different both groups (p<.05) and between groups were not significantly different into pre and post intervention (p>.05). PROM was significantly different both groups (p<.05) however, betwee n groups were not significantly different into pre and post intervention (p>.05). SI was significan tly different only group 2 and between groups were not significantly different (p>.05). Conclusio ns: This study demonstrated effective bo-th modified mulligan technique and modified mulligan t echnique with taping on the active range of motion and passive range of motion. Because only modified mulligan technique with taping are effective on the scapula index we recommend mod ified mulligan technique with taping than modified mulligan technique.
