Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

Cervical spine manipulation has been shown to be helpful for some patients with neck pain. This study sought to determine factors which were predictive of which patients with neck pain would benefit from manipulation.
