This trial tests whether high-intensity laser therapy can reduce long-lasting neck pain and improve daily function. It may help people whose neck pain has lasted at least 3 months and who meet specific pain and disability scores.
This trial tests whether different doses of high-power laser therapy can relieve neck pain that isn't caused by a specific injury. It's for people with moderate to severe neck pain that limits movement, and who are willing to avoid pain medications during the study.
This study tests whether shining a low-level laser on the neck can reduce nerve pain (tingling, numbness, or electric shock feelings) that some people get after neck dissection surgery. Pain relief from this treatment could make daily life more comfortable.
This study tests whether a high-power laser treatment applied to the upper neck can reduce headache-related muscle activity and improve quality of life for people with cervicogenic headaches. If you have neck-related headaches that spread to the back of your head, this treatment might help ease the pain and improve your daily functioning.
This study tests whether high-power laser therapy can help people with cervical radiculopathy (nerve pain from the neck). The laser is applied to the neck to reduce pain and improve function, and the trial will also see if it affects the shape of the discs in the spine.
This study tests a combination of high-intensity laser therapy (a painless light treatment) and a gentle hands-on technique called 'Mulligan mobilization' to see if it helps reduce chronic low back pain. The goal is to find a non-surgical way to improve your pain and movement.
