Aim: To find out the effectiveness of Stretching Exercise on joint pain among Obese Women
Material and method: The investigator selected A quasi experimental research design. Theprimary
objective was to evaluate the effectiveness of Stretching Exercises to reduce joint pain among Obese
Women between control and experimental group.non-probability purposive sampling technique was
used to select 40 samples are assigned to the experimental group and 40 are assigned to the
control group. total sample are 80 To collect the data,
Result: The collected data were tabulated and analyzed by using descriptive andinferential statistics.
The obtained X2 value of demographic variables are less than thetablevalueof X2 at0.05 level of significance. Hence the obtainedX2 value is not significant. Hence, the H2 is fails to accept. It has
been found that there is a significant improvement in the Stretching Exercise on joint pain among the
experimental group as the calculated T value is higher than the table value at 0.05 level. Hencethe
obtainedX2 valueis significant. Hence, the H1 is to accept.
Conclusion: This study conducted that the effectiveness of Stretching Exercise on joint pain among
