简要总结
In this study, we aimed to determine the effects of heat therapies and neck stabilization exercises on pain, disability, range of motion, and mood of NP patients.
详细描述
Chronic non-specific neck pain (NP) has become one of the main causes of disability in the adult population around the world.Several treatment options used like; exercise, manual therapy, electrotherapy, and hot treatments etc. In this study, we aimed to determine the effects of heat therapies and neck stabilization exercises on pain, disability, range of motion, and mood of NP patients.100 patients with NP will be included.Patients will be randomyl assigned to 4 groups and will receive a total of 3 weeks of treatment. Patients' pain levels (visual analogoue scale VAS), quality of life (short form 36), mood (Beck deppression inventory BDI), range of motion, and neck disability index were evaluated prior to treatment, at 6th and at 12th weeks.
