Therapy techniques for neck pain relief
Part of Pain clinical trials.
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 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 whether a hands-on technique called ischemic compression (applying gentle pressure to trigger points) plus home exercises helps relieve long-term neck pain that has no specific medical cause.
This trial tests whether hands-on/manual physical therapy helps people with neck pain and reduced neck movement. It may help improve motion and reduce symptoms if your neck pain fits the trial’s type and severity.
This trial tests two hands-on physical therapy methods for chronic neck pain. Researchers will compare a technique called neuromuscular inhibition with instrument-assisted soft tissue mobilization to see which better reduces pain, improves neck strength, and restores your sense of body position.
This trial tests a physiotherapy program for people with neck pain lasting 3 months or longer. The goal is to see if it helps reduce pain and improve daily function.
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.
