Effects of a Multimodal Telerehabilitation Program in Patients With Chronic Non-Specific Neck Pain.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the clinical results in pain intensity, neck disability, range of motion, endurance deep cervical muscles, forward head position and kinesiophobia through thoracic spine mobility, deep neck muscles and thoracic strength training and pain education protocol versus a thoracic spine mobility, thoracic strength training and pain education protocol in patients with chronic non-specific neck pain.

Effects of Connective Tissue Massage and Physical Modalities Combined With Stabilization Exercises in Chronic Neck Pain

This randomized, double-blinded controlled trial aims to investigate the comparative effects of connective tissue massage and physical modalities, when combined with cervical and scapulothoracic stabilization exercises, in individuals with chronic non-specific neck pain. A total of 51 participants aged 18-65 years will be randomly assigned into three groups. Group 1 will perform stabilization exercises alone, Group 2 will receive stabilization exercises plus connective tissue massage, and Group 3 will receive stabilization exercises plus electrotherapy modalities (infrared, continuous ultrasound, and TENS). The interventions will be conducted twice weekly for 8 weeks, and participants will also perform home-based exercises daily. Primary outcomes include pain, disability, and endurance, while secondary outcomes focus on quality of life, cervical range of motion, and scapular function.

Comparison of Dynamic Neuromuscular Stabilization Exercises and Deep Cervical Muscle Exercises on Muscle Fat Infiltration in Individuals With Neck Pain

This clinical trial study aims to compare the effects of DNS (Dynamic Neuromuscular Stabilization) exercises and deep cervical muscle exercises on fat infiltration, disability, and posture in individuals with chronic non-specific neck pain. The clinical questions of this study are as follows: * Can DNS and deep cervical muscle exercises decrease muscle fat infiltration? * Can DNS and deep cervical muscle exercises improve neck disability? * Can DNS and deep cervical muscle exercises improve neck posture? Researchers will compare DNS and deep cervical muscle exercises to people with non-specific neck pain. DNS exercises are hypothesized to significantly reduce fat infiltration and improve neck disability and neck posture compared to deep cervical muscle exercises. The participants will undergo an MRI scan and clinical assessment, such as NDI (Neck Disability Index) and posture checking, before being randomly divided into two groups. The first group will perform DNS exercises, and the second group will engage in deep cervical muscle exercises. Both sets of exercises will be performed for 16 weeks as part of a daily routine. After the 16-week exercises, the participants will undergo a follow-up MRI, NDI, and posture checking.
