Detailed Description
Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.
1 received selected physical therapy programme. Group 2 recieved suboccipital release. All participants were assessed for cortisol and pain level by using visual analogues scale and neck disability scale. Also participants were assessed by pressure algometer for pain intensity. Participants were assessed for QOL by FIBROMYALGIA IMPACT QUESTIONNAIRE (FIQR) . treatment was done 3 sessions per weeks for successive 6 weeks pre and post assessment for all valuable were Done

Study Groups
Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.
Selected physiotherapy programme
Suboccipital release
The ptients in this group recieve suboccipital release. The patient is positioned in a supine (lying on their back) position, allowing full relaxation of the cervical spine.
The therapist places their fingertips or hands under the patient's occiput, making contact with the suboccipital muscles.
Using gentle, sustained pressure, the therapist allows the weight of the head to create a release, often holding for 1-5 minutes.
Subtle adjustments may be made, such as slight traction or rocking, to facilitate myofascial release and relaxation.
