Filter by:This is a non-randomised, single arm, open-label study of medical cannabis, Cybis™ 10:25, in participants with chronic back or neck pain in which participants receive escalating doses of Cybis™ 10:25.
Objective: The purpose of this study was to compare the effects of ischemic compression (IC) and kinesio taping (KT) treatments on blood flow, tissue stiffness and thickness, pain, and joint range of motion on the upper trapezius muscle of individuals with chronic neck pain. Methods: In this study 22 individuals between the ages of 20-35 were randomly assigned to 3 groups: Group1, which received IC; Group2, received KT; Group3 (control) received exercise, for 2 days and 4 weeks. Pain was measured with VAS, pain threshold with J-Tech Algometer, range of motion with BASELINE Digital Inclinometer, ultrasonographic measurements for blood flow, tissue stiffness and tissue thickness using Acuson S3000. All measurements were performed twice; before and after treatment.
This randomized controlled double-blinded pilot trial was performed in the Medical University of Vienna, Department of Special Anesthesia and Pain Medicine between 2015 and 2018. Aim of the study was to assess the effect of regular electrotherapy applied on the spinal cord of patients with chronic non-specific neck pain and/or low-back pain. The hypothesis was that subjective feeling of pain, range of motion of the cervical and lumbar region, as well as the activity in daily living improved after weekly electrotherapy sessions for 30 min each.
It is a randomized control trial will be conducted at Federal Government Polyclinic hospital on 44 chronic mechanical neck pain patients. Patients will be recruited in the study through non probability purposive sampling. Random allocation will be done through toss coin method into two groups; Conventional Physiotherapy Control group (n=22) and Proprioceptive training Experimental group (n=22). Research data will be collected through structural questionnaires. Tools will be used to collect data are NPRS, NDI, Goniometer (Cervical ROMs) and proprioception.
The aim of this study was to examine the validity and test-retest reliability of unsupported upper extremity exercise test (UULEX) in individuals with chronic neck pain. Patients with neck pain lasting at least 3 months will be included in the study. It is planned to examine the validity and test-retest reliability of the UULEX test in that patient groups.
The purpose of this study is to assess the extent to which a non-invasive, palpatory neuromodulatory protocol on the trigeminal nerve endings on the face can affect tenderness felt on the posterior neck musculature, using the Isotouch pressure sensor system. Specific Aim 1: Subjects will see a decrease in tenderness in the posterior neck musculature. Specific Aim 2: Subjects will show a decrease in tenderness on the trigeminal tender points found on the face.
45 sedentary volunteer female individuals whose age range is between 18-25 years and diagnosed with chronic idiopathic neck pain by a specialist physical therapy doctor will participate in the study. Participants will be randomly divided into three groups: vegan diet group (n=15), therapeutic exercise group (n=15) and control group (n=15). Participants with chronic neck pain who will be on a vegan diet will follow a diet program prepared by an expert dietitian under the supervision of an endocrinologist. In this diet program, a diet that includes grains, fruits, vegetables, legumes, as well as dairy products and eggs, known as lacto-ovo vegetarian, will be applied. Consumption of meat, poultry, fish, seafood and processed food and beverages will not be allowed. There will be no calorie restriction in the diet, and the diet will be arranged according to the amount of calories calculated by the expert dietitian according to BMI. The diet will last eight weeks. Individuals who follow a diet will be constantly checked by the workers with the mobile device application (My Fitness Pal®). Individuals in the therapeutic exercise group will perform therapeutic exercises for eight weeks, 3 days a week, accompanied by a specialist physiotherapist.The aim of this study is to compare the Effect of Therapeutic Exercise and Vegan Diet on Pain and Quality of Life in Young Women with Chronic Idiopathic Neck Pain.
Chronic neck pain is among the most frequently seen chronic painful conditions. As an important cause of disability, chronic neck pain is a musculoskeletal disorder that negatively affects quality of life. Cervical disc herniation is one of the leading causes of chronic neck pain and conservative methods such as exercise and pain medications are used first in the treatment. In patients unresponsive to conservative treatment, epidural steroid injection is successfully and frequently used treatment option. Epidural steroid injection in the cervical region can be applied with two approaches: interlaminar or transforaminal. Myofascial trigger point characterized by intramuscular taut band and hypersensitive spots is a condition in which central and peripheral sensitization play a role in the pathophysiology. There are underlying myofascial trigger points in many etiologies that cause chronic neck pain. Trigger points can increase the severity of pain and in some cases they can be the main factor in the etiology of pain. Therefore, the presence of myofascial trigger points should be investigated, even if another cause is detected in chronic neck pain. Dry needling is an easily applicable and effective treatment option in myofascial trigger point. Although it is well known that myofascial trigger points frequently accompany cervical disc herniation, their effect on treatment outcomes has not been investigated. In this study, we aimed to investigate the effect of dry needling for trigger points on the treatment results of interlaminar epidural steroid injection in patients diagnosed with cervical disc herniation.
The aim of this study is to analyze the effect of Mulligan technique vs stretching techniques and vs routine physical therapy on pain ,range of motion(ROM) and functional disability among restaurant chefs with non-specific chronic pain.
The aim for this graduate student research project is to determine if cervical spinal mobilization releases similar neuropeptides and endogenous hormones as compared to cervical spinal manipulation and a control group. We hypothesized that application of cervical manipulations would result in a neuroendocrine response (SNS- HPA axis). By measuring salivary cortisol, oxytocin and DHEA, it may be possible to provide important information regarding the mechanisms and associations of pain modulation, anti-inflammatory and tissue healing after a biomechanical event.
