Popis: Pronator teres syndrome is a rare condition, in which compression on the median nerve occurs at the elbow joint. It is a very rare condition compare to carpel tunnel syndrome. Compression can cause pain and numbness in the hand. The most common cause of pronator teres syndrome is compression of the median nerve in between the two belley’s of pronator teres muscles. In the case of advanced disease, the pain and numbness can be managed by prednisolone injections. Some of the literature shows massage therapy also works on relieving the symptoms. Matrix rhythm therapy (MaRhyThe) has shown to be beneficial in the treatment of pain and movement disturbances. Matrix rhythm therapy is invented by Dr.Randoll from Germany for the treatment of pain and does not have side effects. The case report was aimed to evaluate the effect of matrix rhythm therapy on pronator teres syndrome which lasted for 60 minutes each day for 3 days and was divided into 3 zones along with other physiotherapy interventions. It showed a positive result in pronator teres syndrome as the pain was reduced on the 3rd day of the session.
