Summary

this study will be conducted to investigate the effect of craniocervical neural mobilization on quality of life in patients with primary tension headache.

Conditions

  • Tension-Type Headache

Interventions

OTHER

craniocervical neural mobilization

the patients will receive The craniocervical neural mobilization in the form of passive craniocervical flexion in which An anterior rotation of the head will be done which stimulates the meninges.To increase mechanical stress in the nervous system, patients will be asked to do a descent and retropulsion of the shoulders while gradually extending both elbows. in addition to Passive lateral cervical sliding and Craniocervical flexion with mouth opening.The neural mobilization should be mild, progressive, and slow. The protocol lasted 15 minutes and also the patients will receive selected physiotherapy program

OTHER

selected physiotherapy program

the patients will receive selected physiotherapy program in the form of Suboccibital muscles inhibition suboccipital inhibition technique (SIT), from supine lying position, the therapist will sit at the patient's head head with the elbows rested on the surface of the table. Then, the therapist will place both hands behind the head of the patient with the palms facing upwards, the fingers flexed, and the finger pads positioned on the posterior arch of the atlas to allow the occiput to rest in the palm of the hands. the patients will receive also trigger point release technique in the form of An ischemic compression for sternocleidomastoid muscle, temporal muscle, upper trapezius muscle and splines muscles
