Brief Summary

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

The location of neck pain is usually shown as "pain occurring between the occiput and the third thoracic vertebra". The annual incidence of mechanical neck pain is 12/1000 patients and is one of the most common reasons for visiting physicians. Neck pain usually lasts longer than 3 months and results in a high cost to society

Detailed Description

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

Movement in one plane in the cervical spine is due to the contribution of vertebrae from other planes. This complicates the kinematics and injury mechanism of the cervical region. Considering the mechanism of injury, demographic information to be obtained from the person is very important.

Study Groups

Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.

Manual therapy applications:

In lower cervical lateral flexion problems, pushing technique will be applied with instrument support from the articular pillar part of the superior vertebra on the side where the limitation is present

Group Type EXPERIMENTAL

Manual therapy application

Intervention Type OTHER

In lower cervical lateral flexion problems, pushing technique will be applied with instrument support from the articular pillar part of the superior vertebra on the side where the limitation is present.

In lower cervical lateral flexion problems, instrument-assisted pushing technique will be applied from the articular pillar part of the superior vertebra on the side where the limitation is present.

Proprioceptive Neuromuscular Facilitation

Proprioceptive Neuromuscular Facilitation (PNF) techniques will be applied to the second group.

Group Type EXPERIMENTAL

Proprioceptive Neuromuscular Facilitation

Intervention Type OTHER

With the rhythmic initiation technique, it is to teach the movement to the person, to improve the feeling of movement, coordination and to help relaxation. With rhythmic initiation, we want the patient's initial passive and then active participation to understand the movement, the direction and rhythm of the movement. After people actively participate, they can use active joint movement.
