Filter by:The purpose of this study is to learn if pain can be relieved by delivering small amounts of electricity (called "electrical stimulation") to the nerves at the top of the neck. This study will use a device called the SPRINT® PNS System. PNS stands for peripheral nerve stimulation (PNS). This device is cleared by the FDA for up to 60 days of use for relief of chronic or acute pain.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the clinical results in cervical spine range of motion, endurance deep cervical muscles, headache impact and physical activity enjoyment by a training protocol with the new device for cervical treatment (CDAT) versus conventional training protocol (CT) in subjects with cervicogenic headache.
To compare the effects of kinesiology taping and Instrument Assisted Soft Tissue Mobilization in cervicogenic headache
the aim of this study is to investigate the efficacy of Dry Needling Versus Instrumented Assisted Soft Tissue Mobilization In the Patient With Cervicogenic Treatment Headache
Given the rising rates of concussion in youth ages 10-19 and the significant proportion of young people who remain symptomatic for months following concussion, research evaluating the efficacy of multifaceted treatment options following concussion is imperative. Studies examining the efficacy of treatment strategies following concussion in children and adults are surprisingly limited, and most focus on one treatment approach, have small sample sizes, are not randomized controlled trials, and focus on individuals with prolonged recovery (months). There is a need for a multifaceted treatment trial to examine the early implementation of treatment approaches that may reduce prolonged recovery while considering the heterogeneous presentation of symptoms and patient preferences in the sub-acute stage following concussion. Randomized controlled trials that consider a multifaceted transdisciplinary approach to treatment in the early period following concussion are needed to raise the bar regarding evidence-informed management following concussion
It is unknown if applying superficial dry needling to the trigeminal innervation field improves pain and disability for patients with cervicogenic headaches. The aim of this study is to determine if superficial dry needling of the trigeminal innervation field improves pain, neck mobility, and disability in patients with cervicogenic headaches. It will also be examined if psychosocial factors such as stress, anxiety, depression and self efficacy influence improvements in pain, range of motion and neck disability.
Cervicogenic headache is a very incessant issue that is often faced by general population.Cervicogenic headache is a significant issue in patients with upper cervical dysfunction. However, its physical therapy management is a subject of debate.As the Comparative effects of SNAGs half rotation technique and Gong's mobilizations has never been investigated in patients with cervicogenic headache and neck pain , the aim of this study is to investigate the effects of these treatments on two study groups(Group A&B) respectively. This study will be a randomized clinical trial and will be conducted in D.H.Q Sahiwal . The study will be completed within the time duration of six months .Non- probability convenience sampling technique will be used to collect the data. The sample size of 30 patients will be taken in this study , aged 25-45 years, will allocate to two groups, Group A (Sustained neutral apophyseal glide half rotation technique) Group B (Gong's mobilization).cervical Sustained neutral apophyseal glide half rotation technique (SNAG) half rotation technique will be performed with the patient sitting on a chair in the erect posture. The thumb placement of therapist will be over the transverse process of C1. Then, glide will be applied ventrally with active rotation of the restricted site 10 times holding for 10 seconds with overpressure at end of the rotation with 30 second rest in between each repetition and 3 session/week for 6 weeks.Group B will be treated three times in a week for 4 weeks.Group B will get Gong's mobilization for 15-20 mins.Participants will be treated 3 times per week for 6 weeks. Pre and Post treatment readings will be taken in 1st session and 6th week respectively. Assessment will done via flexion rotation test (FRT),6-item Headache Impact scale and neck disability index. Neck Disability Index will use to examine neck pain intensity and cervicogenic headache symptoms.
Art therapy is used across the Military Health System for treatment of posttraumatic symptoms, but there is limited research on how art therapy is able to restore emotional expression and regulation in service members. This research hopes to learn about the effects of art therapy on emotional expression and regulation in service members as well as the neurological systems at work. If a participant chooses to be in this study, he or she will attend ten sessions over a period of twelve weeks. The first session will be an interview and self-assessment questionnaires to collect information on a variety of symptoms, experiences, and personality traits, and an MRI scan. During the MRI scan, participants will be asked to perform a task where they will be shown a series of neutral and negative images. The middle eight sessions will be one-hour art therapy sessions with a certified art therapist. The last session will consist of the same self-assessment questionnaires and another MRI scan.
The aim of this randomized controlled trial is to compare the effects of sustained natural apophyseal glide and deep friction massage in patients with cervicogenic headache for reducing pain, enhancing cervical range of motion and improving sleep quality.
52 people between the ages of 18-45 who were diagnosed with cervicogenic headache by the physician who applied to the Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation Department of Bursa VM Medical Park Hospital will be included in the research. 52 people will be randomized. They will be divided into two groups, 26 people in the study group and 26 people in the control group. The study group will be called the mechanical traction group (CTG), and the control group will be called the manual traction group (MTG). After obtaining the demographic information of the individuals to be included in the study, the cases will be evaluated with the visual analogue scale (VAS) and Mc-Gill Melzack Pain Questionnaire for head and neck pain before and after treatment. Cervical joint range of motion will be measured with an electrogoniometer, and muscle tone will be measured with myotonometer (MyotonPRO). Flexion and extension endurance tests will be performed on the cervical region muscles. Headache Impact Scale (HIT-6) will be performed to evaluate the functional status of the patients. Posture of patients will be evaluated with Corbin Posture Analysis. Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index will be used to evaluate the sleep quality of the patients. All patients will be informed about the study. An informed consent form will be obtained from each. The mechanical traction group (CTG) and the manual traction group (MTG) will be treated for 6 days and 2 weeks. Intermittent traction with chattanooga tru trac traction device will be applied to CTG, and manual traction, one of Cyriax's neck mobilization techniques, will be applied to MTG.transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation (TENS), hotpack and ultrasound will be applied to both groups, and an exercise program will be given in the form of a home program.
