Summary

The purpose of the study is to evaluate the effect of cervical stabilization exercises on pain intensity level, cervical range of motion, proprioception, and handgrip strength in sedentary office workers.

Conditions

  • Cervical Pain

Interventions

OTHER

cervical stabilization exercises

Neck stabilization exercises included the following: Chin tuck, cervical extension, Shoulder shrugs, Shoulder rolls, Scapular retraction

DEVICE

Ultrasound therapy

The Chattanooga Intelect ultrasound made in America. Year of production: 2013. It was clinically proven to provide the best possible treatment outcomes by utilizing a high-quality transducer to ensure maximum ultrasound delivery to the treatment area. The output is a clean, culminated beam with the lowest available beam non-uniformity ratio

OTHER

traditional treatment program

US, IR and therapeutic exercise program that consisted of Stretching exercises included the following: 1) stretching pectoralis muscle, placing both hands on the occipital area and pulling the elbows back up, and performing arm abduction and external rotation. 2) Stretching the cervical extensors, placing both hands on the occipital area in a sitting position followed by a flexed neck posture with the head down to stretch the cervical extensors.

DEVICE

Infrared therapy

Infrared therapy is a non-invasive treatment modality that uses infrared light to promote healing, reduce pain, and improve circulation. It involves the application of infrared light, which penetrates deep into the tissues, providing therapeutic benefits.
