Summary

This is across sectional observational study aims to investigate whether there are sex-based differences in cervical proprioception, pain intensity, and neck disability in patients with chronic mechanical neck pain. The findings may contribute to better individualized care plans and inform future clinical guidelines.

Conditions

  • Chronic Mechanical Neck Pain

Interventions

OTHER

observation (cervical proprioception, neck pain and neck disability)

1\) Assessment of cervical proprioception using CROM device: Head reposition accuracy tests: neutral head position (NHP) and target head position (THP) tests are common tests used to assess cervical proprioception. Repositioning to the NHP and repositioning into THP. The test procedures were the same as those described by Lee et al., 2006. The NHP test measures the subject's ability to actively reposition their head to their self-selected neutral position. The THP test measures the individual's ability to actively reposition the head to a previously demonstrated target position. A) Neutral head position: After explaining the testing procedure, the CROM device will securely fixed on the head of the subject. The participants will instructed to sit upright with their feet flat on the floor, their back against the chair backrest and facing straight ahead, this position will established as their self-selected "NHP". The magnetic part of the unit was then placed so that it was put
