Summary

Purpose:

The study aimed to determine whether adding extracorporeal shockwave therapy (ESWT) to a standardized physiotherapy program provides additional benefits for patients with chronic mechanical neck pain. Specifically, it examined effects on pain intensity, pressure pain threshold (PPT), neck disability index (NDI), cervical active range of motion (AROM), and joint position sense (JPS).
