Objective: T o determine the effect of Rhythmic chopping & lifting pattern on shoulder range of motion in Post-mastectomy patients.

Method: A total 40 subjects were taken according to inclusion and exclusion criteria. Each subject was assessed by using Shoulder goniometry and UEFI questionnaire.

Result: A statistical analysis showed that Rhythmic chopping and lifting PNF exercises showed significant improvement in the outcome variables concluding that it improves shoulder ROM and functional activities.

Conclusion: Analysis of all the data obtained through the outcome measures (UEFI Questionnaire and shoulder ROM) shows that Rhythmic chopping and lifting PNF exercises showed significant improvement in the outcome variables concluding that it improves shoulder ROM and functional activities.
