简要总结
This study will evaluate Effects of Neural Mobilization with or without Soft Tissue Mobilization in Cervical Radiculopathy, half of the subjects will receive treatment of Neural Mobilization along with Soft Tissue Mobilization whereas half of the subjects will receive only Neural Mobilization.
详细描述
Neural mobilization and Soft Tissue Mobilization both treatments are used to treat Cervical Radiculopathy but they work differently.
Neural mobilization technique is different for all 3 nerves i.e Radial, ulnar and median. Neural Mobilization Technique target the single nerve which is being compressed and showing symptoms.
Soft Tissue Mobilization include traction which decompresses the nerve and stretches the surrounding muscles along with help to reduce pain and tingling sensation. whereas hot pack helps to increase blood circulation and warm up muscles and isometric exercises provide strengthening and build endurance.

研究组 & 干预措施
Neural Mobilization with Soft Tissue Mobilization
Neural Mobilization with Soft Tissue Mobilization group will be assessed by spurling's test and than will involved in treatment protocol i.e Cervical Traction, Hot packs, Neural mobilization Techniques which involve Median, Radial and Ulnar Nerve Mobilization and Post Isometric Relaxation Techniques.
Frequency for Neural mobilization is 3 sets of 10 repetitions for each and duration of 15minute. Participant will be scheduled to attend 12 treatment session (3 sessions every week for 4 weeks, 40mints each session)
干预措施: Neural Mobilization with Soft Tissue Mobilization (Other)
Neural mobilization without Soft Tissue Mobilization
Neural Mobilization without Soft Tissue Mobilization group will be assessed by spurling's test and than will involved in treatment protocol i.e Cervical Traction, Hot packs, Neural Mobilization Participant will be scheduled to attend 12 treatment session (3 sessions every week for 4 weeks, 30mints each session)
干预措施: Neural Mobilization without Soft Tissue Mobilization (Other)
