Effects of Mckenzie Exercises and Neural Flossing Technique in Patients With Cervical Rediculopathy

Comparing the Effects of Mckenzie Exercises and Neural Flossing Technique in Patients With Cervical Rediculopathy

The primary objective of this research was to conduct a comparative analysis of the outcomes following McKenzie therapy and neural mobilization in individuals diagnosed with cervical radiculopathy

In this RCT, 28 individuals meeting the standard criteria for cervical radiculopathy were recruited and randomly assigned to one of two groups (n=14 each). Group A underwent McKenzie exercises, while Group B received the Neural Flossing technique. To ensure consistency, both groups were provided with identical baseline care, including hot packs, TENS, and postural education. The treatment protocol consisted of three sessions weekly for a total of four weeks

Inclusion Criteria:

• subjects with age 25 to 60 years
• subject having acute onset of cervical radiculopathy

Exclusion Criteria:

• subjects with cervical trauma
• subjects with cervical or upper limb arthritis
• subjects with spinal tumours or surgery
