Summary

The aim of this study is to evaluate the effects of Pompage associated or not with PBM, using a cluster of LEDs, on pain and neck disability. This controlled, randomized, and double-blinded clinical study includes participants of both genders, aged 18 to 55, with non-specific chronic neck pain will be included. Participants will be randomized into two groups: (1) Pompage (n=28) focusing only on manual therapy through Pompage technique and (2) Pompage + PBM Group (n=28) involving the same procedures as the first group, followed by PBM with a LED cluster applied for 10 minutes to the neck region for 10 sessions. Pain and functional disability will be assessed using the visual analog scale (VAS) and Neck Pain Disability Index before and after the intervention. The resulting data will be submitted to statistical analysis considering α=0.05.

Conditions

  • Cervicalgia

Interventions

DEVICE

Photobiomodulation (Experimental)

The photobiomodulation with a diode emitting light (LED) cluster device will be positioned on the cervical region of each patient (for 10 minutes each).

PROCEDURE

Pompage Technique (manual therapy)

To perform cervical Pompage the patient lies comfortably on their back or sits upright. The therapist locates the target area on the cervical spine. Using gentle pressure, the therapist applies traction to the cervical spine, stretching the muscles and fascia. The traction is held for 20 seconds. The therapist then releases the traction, allowing the cervical spine to return to its neutral position. This process will be repeated 3 times, with adjustments made based on the patient's response and comfort level.

DEVICE

Photobiomodulation (Placebo)

The photobiomodulation with a diode emitting light (LED) cluster device will be positioned on the cervical region of each patient (for 10 minutes each) with the device turned off (inactive), simulating the time with a recorded beep sound.
