This study tests whether a special hands-on therapy (spinal manipulation) can help people with long-term neck pain. It will measure how the neck moves and whether the treatment improves movement and reduces pain.
This study tests whether manual therapy (hands-on techniques) can reduce neck pain, improve daily function, and enhance quality of life for people with long-term neck pain.
This trial tests two hands-on treatments—gentle joint movement and soft tissue release—to see which better helps long-lasting neck pain. It could offer pain relief without surgery or strong medications.
This study tests whether a specific neck exercise approach (Sahrmann's method) helps reduce neck pain and improve neck movement in young adults. The trial aims to see if these exercises can help people with certain types of neck pain feel better.
This study uses special MRI scans to look at muscles and nerves in people with long-term neck or shoulder pain caused by trigger points (tender spots in muscles). The goal is to understand what happens in the body with this type of pain—so doctors can find better ways to treat it.
This study is testing a method to see which neck pain patients benefit most from manual therapy and exercise. You may be eligible if you have neck pain (with or without arm symptoms) and have not had recent whiplash, neck surgery, or certain other conditions.
