Impact of Cervical Lordosis Rehabilitation on Disability and Pain in Non-specific Neck Pain
Abstract
Background and Objective: Neck pain is an important social and economic health problem affecting up to two thirds of adults at some point in their lives. This study aimed to determine the effect of cervical lordosis rehabilitation on disability and pain on cervical
lordosis.
Materials and Methods: About 60 patients (38 females and 22 males) diagnosed with non-specific neck pain were assigned randomly into 2 equal groups (group A 'experimental', group B 'control') whose ages ranged from 25-45 years. Measurements include functional neck disability and pain intensity outcome. Group A received a traditional physical therapy program using Cervical Denneroll equipment, whereas group B 'control' received only the traditional physical therapy program respectively. The frequency of treatment was 3 times/week for 8 weeks with total sessions of 24 sessions.
Results: When comparing between both groups, the results revealed that there was significant improvement of all measured parameters in groups A (p<0.05), while there was no significant improvement of all measured parameters in group B.
Conclusion: Cervical Denneroll equipment is an important factor to be considered in the
management of cervical lordosis in cases of non-specific neck pain.
