Interventions

OTHER

Suboccipital release

The ptients in this group recieve suboccipital release. The patient is positioned in a supine (lying on their back) position, allowing full relaxation of the cervical spine. The therapist places their fingertips or hands under the patient's occiput, making contact with the suboccipital muscles. Using gentle, sustained pressure, the therapist allows the weight of the head to create a release, often holding for 1-5 minutes. Subtle adjustments may be made, such as slight traction or rocking, to facilitate myofascial release and relaxation.
