  • Cervical Spine Disease

Interventions

OTHER

Positional release technique

Positional Release Technique The subject lies supine with therapist standing on the affected side; tender points are located along the upper fibres of the trapezius. Pressure will applied by pinching the muscle between the thumb and fingers. The subject's head is laterally flexed toward the side of tender point, then therapist grasps the subject's forearm and abducts shoulder to approximately 90° a slight flexion or extension is added to obtain fine-tune. The ideal position of comfort achieved is held for a period of 90 seconds and followed by a passive return of the body part to an anatomically neutral position continued for 5 minutes.

Myofascial release technique & Ultrasound

Myofascial Release Technique * Position of the patient - sitting comfortably with supported back, elbow flexed with forearm placed on a pillow. A low load, long duration stretch is applied along the lines of maximal fascial restrictions. The fascia is palpated and the pressure is applied directly to the skin, into the direction of restriction just until resistance (tissue barrier) is felt. The pressure will be applied for 90 to120 seconds. This procedure will carried out without sliding over the skin or forcing the tissue until the fascia complex starts to yield and a sensation of softening is achieved. * Therapeutic ultrasound with the frequency of 3Mhz , with continuous mode and an intensity of 0.1-1.5 W/cm2 for a duration of 5 min will given with the patient position back rest.
