Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

Neck pain is common in older adults. There are a lot of approaches for treatment of neck pain such as soft tıssue mobilizations, electirical stimulations etc. Mulligan proposes mobilization with movement (MWM) technique for various musculoskeletal disorders. But there is no study related MWM for older adults with neck pain. The purpose of this study is to examine the effect of mulligan mobilization technique on pain, range of motion (ROM), functional level, kinesiophobia, depression and quality of life (QoL) in older adults with neck pain. The hypothesis of our study is MWM can be effective on ROM, kinesiophobia, depression and QoL in older adults with neck pain.
