Protocol summary

Study aim
To identify the effects of sustained natural Apophyseal gilde versus Cervical Manipulation in treatment of Mechanical neck pain
Design
Randomized Clinical Trial,50 subjects (25 in each group) will be randomly allocated,single blinded study
Settings and conduct
study conducted at KKT Orthopedic Spine Center and Royal Institute of Medical Sciences,Multan ,Sample size will be 50 individuals (25 each group) conducted in time duration of 6 months.group 1 patients got sustained natural Apophyseal glide and group 2 got cervical manipulation.
Participants/Inclusion and exclusion criteria
inclusion criteria-1.- 50 patients both males and females with mechanical neck pain aged between 22 to 65 will be included.2-• hypo-mobility of the cervical range of motion.3-• Non -discogenic neck pain, stiffness, muscle tension, headache and migraine. exclusion criteria-1-• Any contraindication to systemic manifestation (e.g. inflammation, infection, advanced degeneration, congenital malformation, trauma, cerebrovascular abnormalities).2-• Positive neurological examination e.g. presence of positive motor reflex, or sensory abnormalities indicating spinal root compression.3-• cervical spine surgery or stenosis ,metabolic or systemic disorders or cancer.-.
Intervention groups
Group A Subjects will be treated with Sustained Natural Apophyseal Glide (SNAG) which included two sessions per week. Patients in this group will receive a baseline treatment that is heating pad for 15 minutes before the treatment. Procedure will be repeat in sets of 5 to 10. Group B Subjects will be treated with Cervical Manipulation after baseline treatment that is heating pad for 15 minutes which included two sessions per week.
Main outcome variables
pain,disability and cervical range of motion
