Filter by:Non-specific neck pain (NSBA) is defined as pain in the posterior and lateral parts of the neck in the absence of neurological and specific pathologies (fracture, infection, inflammation, etc.) between the superior nuchael line and the 1st thoracic vertebra. The lifetime neck pain rate is approximately 12-70%; Neck pain is the reason for admission in approximately 25% of applications to outpatient clinics of the Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation Clinic. Neck pain is the most common spinal problem after low back pain, and it is defined as nonspecific neck pain due to its multifactorial etiology. Many conservative treatment methods are used in the treatment of NSBA. These include medical treatments, exercise, massage, acupuncture, neural therapy and physical therapy modalities. The basis of Mulligan's theory is based on a positional error that develops secondarily, causing misplacement of the joint. With the Mulligan mobilization technique, the joint is displaced to normal and positional error is corrected. Restoration of motion is aimed by repositioning the bone. The main indication in this technique is increased pain, stiffness and weakness in movement. The Mulligan mobilization technique is performed by asking for active movement while maintaining a manually applied joint shift. Painless movement is aimed at the joint. According to the general principles of Mulligan treatment, all techniques are applied in a way that does not cause pain and creates an effect that will eliminate the pain in a short time after the application.
Neck pain is a widespread problem in the general population and is second only to low back pain in musculoskeletal issues.
This is a two-group, cluster randomized controlled trial designed to assess a health promoting intervention in the home care sector. The intervention aims to evenly distribute the patients requiring high levels of demanding care across all workers on the units, which may lower the working strain and thus the incidence of musculoskeletal pain. The two groups in the study will be a control group and an intervention group. The intervention will last for approximately 4 months.
SCAPULO-THORACIC MOBILIZATION COMPARED TO IASTM IN PATIENTS WITH MECHANICAL NECK PAIN
Neck pain is common in the adult general population, disabling and costly Lifetime, which constituted a great problem facing the mother during breast feeding period. The studies showed that poor knowledge and wrong position for breastfeeding influence their own health as well as baby's health. Stretching exercises are one of the manual physical therapy methods that can be used in the treatment of mechanical neck pain) Muscle energy techniques (MET) were originally developed to treat soft tissue, mobilize joints, stretch tight muscles and fascia, reduce pain and to improve circulation and lymphatic drainage. This study aims at applying stretching along with MET technique (post isometric relaxation) to see the combined effect of these two techniques and comparing that group with another one that is only applied stretching and baseline treatment. A randomized clinical trial will be undertaken. Non probability convenient sampling will be used. Forty-six patients with neck pain and muscular spasm will be randomly allocated. Twenty-three participants will be allocated with lottery method in each group. The former group will receive Stretching with MET (post isometric relaxation), and the latter group will receive static stretching only. Both groups will also receive baseline therapy. Treatment will be given once a day daily for 14 days. A visual analogue scale (VAS) will be used to measure the intensity of pain and MMJ questionnaire for muscular spasm. Data will be collected before and at the end of treatment at the 14th day. To analyze data SPSS version 29 will be used.

This study will be conducted to evaluate effect of sustained natural apophyseal glides and cervical manipulation in pain and disability of neck among wrestler players .All subjects will be selected between ages 18 to 35 years. Data will be collected from players in registered gujranwala wrestling clubs. Study design will be Randomized Clinical Trial. Neck pain disability index questionnaire and NPRS will be used to check the disability in neck and intensity of pain respectively. Informed consent will be taken from all participants. Study will be conducted in 6 weeks' time period. Data will be collected at the start of research and after six week post research date will collected for analysis. Patients will be allocated randomly into two main groups. Group A is the interventional group and group B is the control group. On group A snag will be performed and Group B will be provided by cervical manipulation to compare the effects of both techniques. SPSS will be used for data entry and analysis.
The goal of the current project is to assess performance of the Bounceless Control sports bra versus: (1) the Shefit Ultimate Sports bra, and (2) conventional bra as worn by participants in a variety of athletic activities.
Currently, selective cervical nerve root injections are recommended under the guidance of fluoroscopy, ultrasonography and computed tomography in patients with chronic cervical radicular pain who do not respond to conservative treatments and are not planned for surgery. Various serious complications, mainly vascular, have been reported in the literature. These complications include vertebral artery injury, spinal cord and brain stem infarction. The arteries of the cervical spinal cord are the vertebral, ascending, and deep cervical arteries arising from the aorta.The arteries arising from these main arteries and reaching the intervertebral foramen are called segmental arteries, the arteries reaching the epidural region from the intervertebral foramen and the radicular arteries, and the branches reaching the spinal cord are called the medullary artery. These small arteries supplying the spinal cord lie close to the spinal nerve in the foramen between the anterior and posterior trabercules. Vasospasm or embolism, which occurs as a result of direct needle trauma to these vascular structures around the target nerve or injection of particulate steroids, are the most common causes of complication development. The aim of our study is to identify the vascular structures around the foramen in selective cervical root injection, which has proven effectiveness in cervical radicular pain, to determine the most reliable method for positioning the needle while reaching the target nerve under US guidance and to prevent possible complications.
