Postural and Clinical Outcomes of SNAGs Treatment in Cervicogenic Dizziness Patients: a Randomised Controlled Trial

NCT04347148 · Status: COMPLETED · Phase: NA · Type: INTERVENTIONAL · Enrollment: 80

Last updated 2020-04-15

No results posted yet for this study

Summary

Previous works demonstrated the relationship between postural disturbances and reduction in cervical range of motion (CROM) in patients suffering from cervicogenic dizziness (CGD). Since sustained natural apophyseal glides (SNAGs) have been proposed as an effective treatment, the aim of the present study was to evaluate how clinical measures could be affected in patients with cervicogenic dizziness undergoing SNAGs.

Conditions

  • Cervicogenic Dizziness
  • Rehabilitation

Interventions

PROCEDURE

SNAGs Treatment

a sustained passive accessory movement (glide), i.e. SNAGs, will be applied by the physiotherapist while the participant will be asked to move actively as allowed by his/her physiological range in the direction producing his symptoms.

PROCEDURE

Sham Laser Treatment

A Laser YAG 3 Chronic (Winform Medical Engineering s.r.l., San Donà di Piave (VE), Italy), will be detuned and applied in the region of cervical spine in order to have a sham treatment
