结局指标
主要结局
Global rating of change scale
时间窗: Immediately after the intervention
Measures overall improvement as perceived by the participant. It is a 15-point scale ranging from -7 (a very great deal worse), through 0 (no change), to +7 (a great deal better). Values above 0 denote improvement following treatment, 0 denotes no change, and values below 0 denote worsening after the treatment. The higher the value, the greater the improvement; the lower the value, the greater the worsening. The participant will be asked to provide a value that represents their change (they may give 0, which denotes no change) following the intervention.
Change in pain reported by the participant during neck movements
时间窗: Baseline and immediately after the intervention
The participant will be asked to report if he/she has pain on each of the following movements: flexion, extension, side flexion and rotation
Change in Sympathetic nervous system activity using skin conductance
时间窗: Baseline, during the intervention and immediately after the intervention
Skin conductance in the index and ring finger will be measured
