Inclusion Criteria

  • Men and women aged between 18 and 65 years
  • Medical diagnosis of non specific chronic neck pain with more than 6 months of evolution of neck pain

Exclusion Criteria

  • Patients with rheumatic diseases, cervical hernia, cervical whiplash syndrome, neck surgeries o a history of arthrodesis
  • Systemic diseases

Outcomes

Primary Outcomes

Pain intensity

Time Frame: Change in pain intensity immediately at the end of the intervention

It is the subjective feeling of self-reported pain ranging from 0-100 points.

Mechanosensitivity based on range of motion

Time Frame: Change in pressure pain threshold immediately at the end of the intervention

The inclinometer, an instrument characterized by the constant use of gravity as a reference point to evaluate mobility, is used to evaluate the range of nerve movement.

Secondary Outcomes

No secondary outcomes reported
