简要总结
Non-specific neck pain is a common musculoskeletal disorder where about 80% of adult population suffers from neck pain during their lifetime. It is a symptom related to postural or mechanical causes and is associated with disability and reduced quality of life. Neck pain is present with weakness and muscular imbalance and has a close relationship between muscle prone to tightness and those prone to inhibition. In case of neck pain, tightness of upper trapezius is present which leads to weakness of other muscles. Both the techniques ART and PRT use similar principles aimed at localizing and treating specific areas of restriction within the fascial system and are intended to release scar tissue, treat facial adhesions, or to reduce tightness within the musculotendinous unit.
