Neck exercises with nerve gliding for pinched nerve in neck
Part of Brain & nervous system clinical trials.
This study tests whether a combination of neck exercises and nerve gliding (gentle movements to help the nerve move freely) can reduce arm pain and other symptoms from a pinched nerve in the neck. If you have this condition and haven't had recent treatment or surgery, you may be eligible.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are between 18 and 65 years old.
- You have been diagnosed with cervical spondylotic radiculopathy (a pinched nerve in your neck).
- You haven't had any other treatment for your neck in the last month, and you haven't had neck surgery before.
- You are not pregnant and do not have serious spine conditions, infections, or major heart/lung problems.
- You are willing and able to follow the study instructions and give your consent.

This trial tests whether adding nerve mobilization exercises to cervical traction improves nerve root function in people with cervical radiculopathy (a pinched nerve in the neck causing arm symptoms). It may help if you have had neck-related arm pain or numbness for more than 3 months.
This study tests if combining laser guidance with neck exercises helps people with cervical radiculopathy (nerve pain in the neck that travels to the arm) improve their neck control and reduce pain. It may be a good fit if you have moderate neck-related arm pain.
This study tests whether core stabilization exercises (exercises to strengthen your trunk and back) can help reduce pain and improve function in people with cervical radiculopathy (a pinched nerve in the neck that causes arm pain and numbness). If you're between 35 and 50, have had neck pain for over six weeks, and your symptoms fit, you may be eligible.
This trial tests if special exercises that retrain your nerves can reduce neck and arm pain and improve movement. It is for people who have had pain for at least 3 months and meet specific physical exam findings.
This study tests whether combining gentle exercises with specific neck joint movements can reduce pain and improve movement in people whose neck pain spreads into their arm. It's for people with a condition called cervicobrachial neuralgia (nerve-related neck and arm pain).
This trial tests a specific neck movement retraining program to improve joint awareness and daily function in people with chronic cervical radiculopathy (nerve irritation in the neck). It may help if you have had neck pain that goes into your arm for at least 3 months.
