About
The purpose of this study was to investigate the comparative effectiveness of high velocity and low amplitude (HVLA)vs Mobilization (Mob) vs Mobilization with movement technique (MWMT) in sample of patients with chronic neck pain (CNP). Secondly to evaluate the immediate effects in range of motion and pain thresholds, and the interaction between psychological factors and the outcomes of these three types of manual therapy.
The hypothesis is that all manual therapies techniques will produce similar effects.
