Neck pain has a global prevalence of 30%, being the fourth leading cause of disability among general population and is more prevalent among females than males, as per concluded by evidence. It is undoubtedly the need of time, to address its proper treatment and to hinder its recurrence amongst the general population. The current physical therapy management of neck pain is more focused towards achieving the short term goals for the patient rather than addressing and amending the actual cause of its relapse. Manual Myofascial Release is one of the very effective treatment used to release soft tissue and fascial adhesions over the myofascia inorder to relieve chronic neck pain. The study aims to compare this manual treatment against Instrument Assisted soft tissue mobilization in order to determine which of the two provides improved outcome in terms of pain, neck disability and cervical Range of motion.
The aim of this study is to compare the effectiveness of Cervical Stabilization and Oculomotor Exercises in addition to the classical physiotherapy on pain severity, cervical joint position sense, posture, cervical joint range of motion, strength and endurance of deep cervical flexor muscles, static and dynamic balance, neck awareness, functional disability and patient satisfaction in individuals with chronic neck pain. When the literature is examined, there is no study comparing the effectiveness of cervical stabilization and oculomotor exercises in individuals with chronic neck pain. However, it has also attracted our attention that a progressive and dynamic program was not followed in studies stating the oculomotor exercise program. In this sense, The study is important in terms of both comparing the effects of these 3 treatments and presenting a progressive and dynamic exercise protocol to the literature.
This prospective observation multifaceted study aims: 1. To perform a large prospective study and identify multiple "omics" biomarkers in chronic low back pain 2. To validate identified biomarkers for progression of acute to chronic low back pain 3. To validate identified biomarkers and test their heritability/validity in additional cohorts 4. To identify pathways and relevant individual variations for generation, propagation and subsidence of pain 5. To identify new imaging biomarkers related to chronic low back pain 6. To develop a registry of neck and low back pain subjects to help monitor the health-care management and utility to improve protocols and patient outcomes.
Neck pain is a complex biopsychosocial disorder often precipitated or aggravated by neck movements or sustained neck postures. The onset and course of this pain are influenced by environmental and personal factors. Many studies report that participants preferred self-care measures for the management of neck pain and they sought professional help only when those measures fail.
