Summary

The purpose of this study is to know which combination of treatments are the most effective in patients with non-specific neck pain. Study design: This is a single-blind randomized controlled trial. (outcomes assessor). Study population: Men and women aged 18 to 60 years old with neck pain for at least 12 weeks. Interventions: 3 groups will be treated for a period of 4 weeks (8 sessions total; 2 per week).

Conditions

  • Neck Pains
  • Posterior Cervical Pains
  • Posterior Neck Pain
  • Cervicalgia

Interventions

OTHER

Manual Therapy and Education

Manual therapy will consist on Traction oscillatory,craniocervical region, Mobilization of upper cervical region in flexion, Side glide roll, Mobilization upper cervical anteroposterior with Wedge, Sliding lateral techniques and High-velocity technique in dorsal region. And Education of the physiology of pain and Education about cognitive behavioral perspective will add to manual therapy treatment.
