Filter by:The purpose of this study is to compare the effect of conventional physical therapy with and without cervical proprioceptive training using head-mounted laser system on cervical joint position sense error, pain, cervical range of motion and neck disability index. Proprioception disturbs in any function and structural impairments that is mechanical neck pain. Different studies has been done to find out the best therapy for pain management. Aim of the researcher is to give cost-effective, not so time-consuming, most effective physical therapy treatment. A literature gap exists on the effects of proprioceptive training combined with conventional physical therapy, no studies have directly compared the effect of proprioceptive training using head-mounted laser with and without conventional physical therapy. In our clinical setting, proprioceptive training for mechanical neck pain is not used as much as it should be. It would be a new thing to add and it can be cost-effective and better treatment for symptoms resolution
purpose of the study: to determine the effectiveness of cervical mobilization with PIR in reducing pain and improving neck ROM and function in people with mechanical neck pain associated with MTrPs
Deep cervical flexor and extensor muscles show decreased strength in patients with Mechanical neck pain. Exercises involving deep cervical muscles has improved coordination and motor control. This study aim to determine the effects of deep flexor muscle exercises along with deep extensor muscle exercises on pain, range of motion and muscle strength in mechanical neck pain.
Mechanical neck pain is a common musculoskeletal problem, worldwide. Patients with neck pain often have subjective complaints of muscle stiffness, tension, or tightness in addition to their pain located between the occiput and the third thoracic vertebra Approximately 68% of the total population has experienced neck pain at least once in their lifetime, and it easily transforms into a chronic state (that persists for more than 3 months). In today's society, this is conspicuous in many laborers due to the increased use of computers, where the neck and shoulders are maintained in static abnormal postures to look at the computer screens and become vulnerable to cause neck pain. The aim of the study is to determine the comparative effects of transverse thoracic mobilization with and without lower trapezius strengthening exercises on pain, disability and range of motion in patients with mechanical neck pain.
SCAPULO-THORACIC MOBILIZATION COMPARED TO IASTM IN PATIENTS WITH MECHANICAL NECK PAIN
The objective of this randomized control trial is to determine the effectiveness of Autogenic and Reciprocal Inhibition techniques with conventional therapy in mechanical neck pain to improve Pain, Range of Motion, and Functional Disability in long term. This study is being conducted at the Physiotherapy department of Sindh Institute of Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation, Karachi (former institute of Dow University of Health Sciences) among 80 patients with mechanical neck pain on the basis of non-probability purposive sample technique with screening for study criteria through a consultant physician (blinded) . After taking informed consent all participants will be randomly allocated in two groups through second researcher who is not involved in screening, baseline assessment and providing intervention. Group 1 will receive Autogenic Inhibition muscle energy technique (MET) with conventional therapy and Group 2 will receive Reciprocal inhibition MET with conventional therapy. A total of 12 sessions will be provided. Outcomes will be assessed at baseline, after 1st session, and at last session.
The aim of this research is to determine the effects of spray and stretch technique versus sustain pressure for the management of upper trapezius triggers. A randomized control trail is conducting at Khyber Teaching Hospital Peshawar and Northwest General Hospital and Research center Peshawar. The sample size is 54. The Participants divide into two groups, 27 participants in Group A (receive the spray and stretch technique) and 27 in Group B (receive sustain pressure). The study duration is 6 months. Purposive non probability sampling technique applied. Only 20 to 35 years participants with upper trapezius trigger is including in this trial. Tools use in this study are visual analogue scale (VAS), Neck Disability Index (NDI), Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale (HADS), Goniometer, Algometer and Manual muscle strength (MMT). Data analyzed through SPSS version 25.
The aim of this research is to compare the effects of post isometric relaxation and graston technique in mechanical neck pain. Post isometric relaxation and graston effects on pain , cervical range of motion and function. A randomized controlled trial was done at Max health hospital G-8 markaz Islamabad . The sample size was 20. The Participants were divided into two groups,10 participants in group A (post iso metric relaxation) and 10 in group B (Graston technique ) . The study duration was 6 months. Sampling technique applied was purposive sampling technique Randomized through sealed enveloped method . Only 18 to 50 years participants with mechanical neck pain were included in the study . Outcome measure Tools used in this study were Numerical pain rating scale (NPRS) ,inclinometer for cervical ROM, Algometer for pain pressure threshold and Neck disability index for assessing functional disability . Data analyzed through SPSS version 20.
The aim of this research is to determine the Effects of Sub-Occipital Muscles Inhibition Technique and Cranio Cervical Flexion Exercise for Mechanical Neck Pain. A randomized control trail will conduct at Railway general hospital(IIMCT). The sample size will be 68. TheParticipants will bedividing into two groups,34 participants in Group A (receive the Sub-Occipital Muscles Inhibition Technique) and 34 in Group B (receive Cranio Cervical Flexion Exercise). The study duration will 6 months. Purposive non probability sampling technique will be applied. Both male and female participants with mechanical neck pain will be include. Tools use in this study areNumerical Pain Rating Scale (NPRS), Neck Disability Index (NDI),Goniometer, Pressure Biofeedback unit, Digital Camera. Data analyzed through SPSS version 21.
controversy remains about the stretching parameters needed to achieve a particular goal or treatment outcome. In clinical practice, multiple stretching techniques are used; nevertheless, there is no evidence-based agreement on the most effective parameters. One of these parameters, that might be affecting the treatment outcome the most, is the stretching duration, thus far there is a little agreement on the optimal stretching duration. This non agreement in exact stretching parameters is obvious between authors and researchers in the field of muscle energy techniques (MET) as well as those who have used and advocate various durations for the passive stretch that follows the contraction phase in MET.
