Better headache treatment with Mulligan therapy
Part of Brain & nervous system clinical trials.
This trial tests whether adding a gentle hands-on technique (the Jones technique) to standard Mulligan therapy helps people with headaches that start from the neck. If you have one-sided headaches that get worse with neck pressure or movement, this treatment might bring relief.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

- You are between 20 and 60 years old
