Filter by:This is a pilot and feasibility randomized controlled trial to assess the efficacy of chiropractic spinal manipulative therapy in patients with tension-type and cervicogenic headache.
The goal of this study is to examine the effectiveness the Mechanical Diagnosis and Therapy (MDT) approach for the management patients with neck related headache that are referred to a hospital based out-patient physical therapy clinic. Background: Headache conditions are among the most common complaints causing people to seek medical care. An estimated 14 billion dollars are spent annually on treating headaches. Neck related headache is characterized by pain which comes from the cervical spine (neck) and could be referred to the head and/or face. CGH is frequently managed clinically utilizing an MDT approach however to date there is limited research available examining the effectiveness of this intervention type in a population with CGH.
The aim of this study is to find out the effects of Mulligan SNAGs along with thoracic postural correction techniques on patients with chronic cervicogenic headache. Patients suffering from cervicogenic headache are often associated with muscle imbalance. This study will be significant in determining the effects of SNAGs along with thoracic postural correction techniques to improve pain, level of disability and functional status in patients of cervicogenic headache. It will be Randomized controlled trial study design Data will be collected from Lady reading Hospital Peshawar Purposive sampling, group randomization using lottery method will be used in this study.
This project will explore the effect of deep friction massage and post isometric relaxation techniques in Cervicogenic headache. The population sample will be 20 divided randomly into two groups by Lottery method. Then i will collect data from central hospital, Gujranwala. One group will be treated with a deep friction massage technique thrice a week for 3 weeks. Another group will be treated with a post isometric relaxation technique thrice a week for 3 weeks. Both groups will receive a heating pad and neck isometric as baseline treatment. Baseline measurements are taken by an inclinometer. After a treatment plan, the group will be assessed again and post-treatment measured values will be compared with the pretest values. Subjects will be asked to come for follow-up after 4 weeks. The follow-up will show which technique is more effective in subjects having Cervicogenic headaches. Both the techniques used are non-invasive and having minimum side effects. This project will help Physical Therapy Practitioner to explore which technique is more useful to treat Cervicogenic headaches.
Cervicogenic headache is a secondary form of headache that occurs from the upper cervical spine and atlanto-occipital joint. A CGH is a frequent source of chronic headache and is frequently misdiagnosed .Cervicogenic headache is among the most common problem affecting four times more women as compared to males and is considered by some painful feeling in the head , neck ,temporal area, frontal area and around the eyes areas.
The purpose of this study is to find out the effect of cervical sustained natural apophyseal glide half rotation technique in patients with cervicogenic headache. Not many researches have focused specifically on the cervical sustained natural apophyseal glide half rotation technique and this study intends to see its effect in the cervicogenic headache patients.
This study will be designed to determining whether there is a relationship between CGH and cervical posture which may potentially provide physical therapists with evidence supporting the assessment and treatment of abnormal posture in this patient group.
Headache is an important health problem. It is the commonest type of all signs of illness in the people worldwide. Cervicogenic Headache is commonest musculoskeletal condition in physiotherapy practice. This study's main objective was to evaluate effectiveness of Dry Needle with exercise in decreasing pain and improving function in patients with Cervicogenic Headache.
The purpose of the study was to compare the effect of upper cervical thrust joint manipulation and reverse Sustained Natural apophyseal Glide on intensity of pain, pain pressure threshold, range of motion and headache disability in patients with cervicogenic headache. A randomized control trial was conducted at Max Rehab and Physical therapy center, Islamabad. The sample size was calculated through open epi tool is 16. The participants were divided in two groups, 8 participants in experimental group and 8 participants in control group. The study duration was six months. Sampling technique applied was Purposive sampling for recruitment and group randomization using sealed envelope method. Only 20 to 40 years participants with cervicogenic headache and associated symptoms were included in the study. Tools used in this study are Numeric pain rating Scale (NPRS), Algometer, Inclinometer and headache disability index (HDI). Data analyzed through Statistical Package for the Social Sciences (SPSS) version 23.
Background: Cervicogenic headache (CH) described as a chronic hemi-cranial pain resulted from a disorder of the cervical spine and its anatomic structures innervated by the C1, C2, and C3 cervical spinal nerves. Traditionally noninvasive and invasive techniques were used for treatment. Greater occipital nerve block is the most frequent peripheral nerve block invasive technique used for the management of cervicogenic headache Objectives: The study was done to compare the efficacy of two different techniques: multifidus cervicus plan block and greater occipital nerve block in treatment of refractory cervicogenic headache using ultrasound guided. Patients and Methods: sixty patients with cervicogenic headache were recruited and diagnosed according to ICHD-ш Beta version. Divided into two group, one for greater occipital nerve block and the other for multifidus cervicis plane block with ultrasound guided.
