Official title:
Effects of Cervicothoracic Manipulation and Passive Stretching to the Upper Trapezius Muscle on Pressure Pain Thresholds and Cervical Range of Motion on Healthy Individuals
The proposed project seeks to evaluate the influence of cervicothoracic (CT) manipulation and passive stretching to the upper trapezius on pressure pain thresholds and range of motion (ROM) in individuals without recent complain of neck pain.
