This study compares different exercise programs to see which one improves physical and mental health in people with chronic neck pain. You may be eligible if you have had neck pain for at least 3 months and it is moderate to severe, but you haven't been in a recent neck pain rehab or exercise program.
This study compares breathing muscle function between people with chronic neck pain and healthy individuals. It aims to see if neck pain affects breathing muscles, which might lead to new treatments.
This trial compares two different treatments for long-lasting neck pain: a special exercise that helps with neck posture (cervical retraction) and a gentle manual therapy technique (facet oscillatory mobilization). It aims to find which method is better at reducing pain and improving neck movement.
This study looks at how nerve signals travel in people with long-term neck pain and whether this relates to central pain (pain caused by changes in the nervous system). It may help doctors understand why some people have more persistent or widespread pain.
This study looks at how physiotherapy affects brain activity and symptoms in people with chronic neck pain lasting more than 3 months. It aims to see if physiotherapy can help reduce pain and improve function.
This study compares two types of exercises—breathing exercises and deep neck muscle training—to see which works better for people with long-term neck pain. You'll do one type of exercise program to help relieve your pain and improve function.
