Brief Summary:
This study compares two treatment techniques, cervical spinal manipulation (CSM) and visceral osteopathy (VO), in patients with mechanical neck pain (MNP). The aim of the study was to evaluate the effects of these treatments on pain levels, neck mobility, and muscle strength in both the neck and upper extremities.
Detailed Description:
The purpose of this study is to compare the acute effects of cervical spinal manipulation (CSM) treatment and visceral osteopathy (VO) techniques on pain, cervical range of motion (ROM), muscle strength, and grip strength in individuals with mechanical neck pain (MNP).
The study is going to include a total of 30 subjects aged 18-60 diagnosed with MNP. The subjects are randomly divided into two groups. The CSM group received high-velocity, low-amplitude (HVLA) spinal manipulation, while the other group underwent VO techniques. Each treatment technique is going to be applied in only one session. Pain intensity is assessed using the Visual Analog Scale (VAS). Cervical ROM and the craniovertebral angle (CVA) are evaluated using a goniometer. Neck and elbow muscle strength are measured with a hand-held dynamometer, and grip strength is assessed using a hand-grip dynamometer.
