About
The aim of this study was to investigate the effects of the Mulligan mobilization technique (MMT) on pain intensity, joint position sense (JPS), kinesiophobia, and disability level in individuals with nonspecific neck pain. A total of 34 female individuals with nonspecific neck pain were included in the study. Pain intensity, JPS, kinesiophobia, and disability levels of all participants were evaluated before and after the 3-week intervention. Participants were randomly divided into two groups. In the first group, the participants received MMT by the physiotherapist twice a week for 3 weeks, and self-mobilization techniques as a home exercise program. The second group was trained only self-mobilization techniques.
Full description
A total of 34 female individuals with nonspecific neck pain that persisted for at least 3 months were included in the study. Individuals who had a surgical indication for the cervical region and/or had undergone surgery, who had received physiotherapy or other treatment in the last year due to neck pain, who had a history of trauma to the cervical and thoracic region, and who additionally had a musculoskeletal system disease were excluded. All participants were evaluated for pain intensity, JPS, kinesiophobia, and disability levels before and after the 3-week intervention. Participants were randomly divided into two groups using the coin toss method. In the first group, the participants received MMT by the physiotherapist twice a week for 3 weeks, and self-mobilization techniques as a home exercise program. The second group was trained only self-mobilization technique.
