Clinical Trial Summary

this study will be conducted to investigate the effect of lumbar motor control training exercise on headache frequency, duration, intensity and neck functional disability in cervicogenic headache patients


Clinical Trial Description

Cervicogenic Headache is a referred pain spreading from cervical structures supplied by the upper cervical spinal nerve roots (C1-C3), this referred pain that starts from the posterior aspect of the head and neck is usually found to be unilateral, and it also can spread to the frontal, temporal and orbital aspects of the head.The patient frequently reports having a terrible headache, having less neck range of motion, performing less well at work, and having trouble focusing, that may linger for hours. The convergence of primary sensory afferents from cervical nerve roots C1 to C3 with the afferents from the occiput and trigeminal nerve causes the underlying pathology. Because of this, the Suboccipital muscles particularly, which cervical roots C1 innervates to C3, are potential risk structures. Treatment options include posture correction, cervical and upper thoracic strengthening exercises, facet joint manipulation, ultrasound therapy, laser therapy, trigger release therapy, and cervical joint mobilization.famous exercise known as "Motor control exercise" attempts to improve the coordination and effectiveness of the muscles that support and govern the spine. It can also improve coordination between the deep neck flexors and superficial neck flexors and between core muscles of the lumbar region. fifty two patients will be randomly assigned to two equal groups; experimental group will receive lumbar motor control and cervical stabilization exercises and control group will receive cervical stabilization exercises only. ;
