This study compares two hands-on treatment approaches—osteopathic manipulation and physiotherapy—for chronic neck pain, headaches, and dizziness caused by cervical dysfunction. If you qualify, you'll receive one of these treatments and help researchers understand which works better.
This study compares two non-drug treatments for headaches that start in the neck. It tests whether hands-on therapy or a program of exercises works better to reduce pain and improve daily life.
This study looks at physical differences between people with cervicogenic headache (a headache that starts in the neck), people with chronic neck pain without headache, and healthy controls. By comparing these groups, researchers hope to better understand what causes the headache and which physical features are specific to it.
This study tests whether adding a special neck muscle relaxation technique to posture correction exercises helps people with cervicogenic headache (headache from neck problems). It might be for you if your headache is triggered by neck pressure or movement and you've had it for at least 3 months.
This study tests if manual therapy (hands-on treatment) can help people whose headaches start from neck problems. If you have headaches at least once a week and limited neck movement, this trial may be an option.
This study tests whether a type of hands-on treatment called osteopathic manipulation can help relieve neck pain and headaches. It's for people who have had these symptoms for more than a month.
