Chronic neck pain is a musculoskeletal disorder that affects people frequently in life.
Postural control is based on the process of correctly identifying and selectively focusing the incoming afferent input of the Central Nervous System (CNS).
The main treatment options for people with neck pain include soft tissue and joint mobilizations, stabilization exercises for the neck, trunk and shoulder muscles, cervical Deckings, relaxation training, strengthening exercises and body awareness and posture training.
In this study, it was aimed to investigate the effects of myofascial relaxation on balance, pain, joint range of motion and functionality in individuals with chronic neck pain by dividing them into two groups in the form of core stabilization and core stabilization and myofascial relaxation.
The study included 45 people between the ages of 18 and 65. In two groups, the core stabilization group will be 22 people, and the core stabilization and myofascial relaxation group will be 23 people. The study period is planned as 6 weeks and 3 sessions per week.

| Name | Type | Description | Arm Group Labels | Other Names |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Core stability training | Other | Before starting core stabilization exercises, hotpack will be given for 15 minutes in the warm-up phase, TENS application, then craniocervical flexion training will be given. Core stabilization exercises consist of three stages: easy, medium and difficult |
| Measure | Description | Time Frame |
|---|---|---|
| Pain severity | Visual Analog Scale ( 0-10, higher means worse ) | 6 weeks |
| Pressure pain threshold (PPT) | Pressure pain threshold was measured with an algometer. | 6 weeks |
| Measure | Description | Time Frame |
|---|---|---|
| Balance | Measurements were made with a Biodex balance device. The scores obtained as a result of 3 measurements were averaged. As the score increases, the balance is considered to have worsened. | 6 weeks |

| Core stability training and myofascial relase | Other | Before starting core stabilization exercises, hotpack will be given for 15 minutes in the warm-up phase, TENS application, then craniocervical flexion training will be given. Core stabilization exercises consist of three stages: easy, medium and difficult. In addition, myofascial relaxation will be applied with roller bar along the superficial back line. |
