Eye Exercises and Self-Cervical Mobilization in Office Workers With Neck Pain

This randomized controlled trial will evaluate the effects of eye exercises and eye exercises plus self-cervical mobilization versus ergonomic education in office workers with mechanical neck pain. A total of 66 participants will be randomized to one of three groups and followed for 6 weeks. Outcomes assessed at baseline and week 6 include pain (VAS), cervical proprioception (joint position error), neck disability (NDI), cervical range of motion, and quality of life (Nottingham Health Profile).

Comparative Efficacy of Magnesium Sulfate Iontophoresis and Extracorporeal Shockwave Therapy on Chronic Mechanical Neck Pain

The purpose of the study is to investigate the Comparative Efficacy of Magnesium Sulfate Iontophoresis and Extracorporeal shockwave therapy on Chronic Mechanical Neck Pain

The Synergistic Effects of Integrated Neuromuscular Inhibition Technique and Dry Cupping Therapy on Pain Modulation and Functional Recovery on Myofascial Trigger Points of Upper Trapezius

The purpose of the study is to investigate the Synergistic Effects of the Integrated Neuromuscular Inhibition Technique and Dry Cupping Therapy on Pain Modulation and functional recovery on Myofascial Trigger Points of the upper trapezius

Deep Cervical Flexor and Sensorimotor Training for Chronic Neck Pain

This randomized controlled trial aims to investigate the effectiveness of deep cervical flexor muscle training combined with sensorimotor (proprioception) training in patients with chronic mechanical neck pain. The study will be conducted in outpatient clinic of the faculty of physical therapy- Cairo University, involving 60 participants aged 20-40 years with neck pain persisting for more than three months. Participants will be randomly allocated into an experimental group receiving conventional physical therapy plus deep flexor and sensorimotor training, and a control group receiving conventional treatment alone. Outcome measures will include pain intensity, craniovertebral angle (CVA), cervical range of motion (ROM), segmental mobility, neuromotor control, proprioception (head repositioning accuracy), and respiratory function (FEV1 and PEF). Assessments will be performed at baseline and after four weeks of intervention. The study seeks to provide evidence-based recommendations for physiotherapy management of mechanical neck pain, particularly addressing the gaps in literature within the regional context.

Comparison of Sustained Natural Apophyseal Glide &Amp; Instrument Assisted Soft Tissue Mobilization

The aim of this randomized controlled trial is to evaluate and compare the effectiveness of two therapeutic techniques-Cervical Sustained Natural Apophyseal Glide (SNAG) and Instrument-Assisted Soft Tissue Mobilization (IASTM)-in the treatment of mechanical neck pain. The trial seeks to determine which method is more effective in reducing pain, improving range of motion, and enhancing overall neck function in individuals suffering from mechanical neck pain.

Effect of MET With and Without MCTE in Mechanical Neck Pain

Work had to be done previously on METs and MCTE techniques, but no study has compared both techniques together to make it more comprehensible. The rationale of this will be to find out the combined effect of motor control therapeutic exercises and muscle energy technique for the treatment of pain, range of motion and disability associated with mechanical neck pain. This study will be effective for the clinicians to treat patients of mechanical neck pain.

Sustained Natural Apophysial Glide Versus Instrument Assisted Soft Tissue Mobilization in Patients With Chronic Mechanical Neck Pain

this study will be conducted to investigate the effect of sustained natural apophysial glide and Instrument assisted soft tissue mobilization on pain intensity, cervical range of motion and neck functional disability level in patients with chronic mechanical neck pain

Comparison of Gongs and Kaltenborn Mobilization on Neck Pain

The aim of this randomized controlled trial is to find the effect of Gongs mobilization in comparison with Kaltenborn mobilization on mechanical neck pain , range of motion and proprioception.A randomized control trial that will include total 44 participants. The first group will receive Gongs mobilization along with conventional therapy and 2nd group will receive Kaltenborn mobilization along with conventional therapy.

Effect of Dynamic Cupping Versus Myofascial Release Therapy in Patients With Mechanical Neck Pain

A Quasi-experimental study will investigate the effect of dry cupping massage versus myofascial release on patients with mechanical neck pain.
