The study compares Facet Oscillatory Mobilization and Mobilization with Movement in managing chronic mechanical neck pain, aiming to determine the effectiveness of these techniques in pain, range of motion, and disability.
This study will be Conducted as a randomized controlled trial, it will include 32 participants divided into two groups receiving different mobilization techniques along with conventional physical therapy. Outcome measures such as the Numeric Pain Rating Scale (NPRS), Neck Disability Index (NDI), and Inclinometer will be used to assess changes over a two-week intervention period with a follow-up after one month.

| Mobilization with movement | Other | Group A will receive Mobilization with movement in which therapist manually applies a gentle mobilizing force to the joint while the patient actively performs a movement (2 to 3 sets) 6 to 10 repetitions per set in sitting position. Conventional treatment (TENS (2 to 10 Hz),10 mints, Heating pad, stretching of tight muscles Trapezius and SCM)should be included. |
| Measure | Description | Time Frame |
|---|---|---|
| Numeric pain rating scale (NPRS) | A subjective pain assessment tool where patients rate their pain intensity on a scale from 0 (no pain) to 10 (worst imaginable pain). | Four Weeks |
| Inclinometer | An inclinometer is a device used in physiotherapy to measure joint range of motion (ROM), particularly in the cervical spine. It provides objective and reliable assessments of neck mobility, helping to track progress in patients with chronic mechanical neck pain. | Four Weeks |
| Neck Disability Index (NDI) | The NDI is a self-reported questionnaire used to assess the impact of neck pain on daily activities, including personal care, work, sleep, and recreation. | Four Weeks |
