Myofascial release is a therapeutic method using the hands to release adhesions or bonds in myofascial tissue. This research aims to prove application of mobilization neurodynamics in repair complaints Method: This study Uses an experimental pretest-posttest control group design. Amount subject study 16 people divided into two groups, group treatment 1 was given intervention practice mobilization neurodynamics, and group treatment 2 was given myofascial release. Intervention gave 3 per week for 4 weeks. The instrument study uses Boston Carpal Tunnel Questionnaire (BCTQ). Result: Measurement result complaint pretest and posttest on groups treatment 1 and treatment 2 equally showing repair with p-value 0.000. Comparison test results effectiveness showing a meaningful difference where practice mobilization neurodynamics better in repair CTS complaints with p-value 0.000.
