简要总结
Neck pain is in fourth place among the pathologies that result in the state of disability. Acute neck pain improves greatly within 2 months, while neck pain that persists for more than 3 months takes the form of chronic neck pain. Pain adversely affects people's activities of daily living. Treatment applications such as electrotherapy, hot and cold applications are applied for purposes such as reducing pain and muscle spasm and correcting functions. In addition to such treatment options, instrument-assisted soft tissue mobilization (IASTM) and foam roller therapy have been started to be applied in many disease groups in recent years and have attracted great attention. iASTM and Foam Roller is a technique that involves the use of tools in disorders of musculoskeletal pathology and to help heal soft tissues.
The aim of this study is to investigate the effects of foam roller technique with instrument-assisted soft tissue mobilization technique in individuals of different ages with chronic non-specific neck pain. According to the data obtained, the techniques the investigators will use, together with physiotherapy programs, contribute to the treatment of individuals with chronic non-specific neck pain and to the literature.is expected to provide.
详细描述
In the study, Foam Roller will be applied to individuals with chronic non-specific neck pain with iASTM and the effect of these techniques will be examined. Demographic information of individuals will be recorded; individuals will be evaluated in detail in terms of muscle strength, flexibility, pain and secondary outcome measures. Individuals in terms of secondary outcome measures; functional status,joint range of motion and quality of life will be evaluated.
The work plan; pre-treatment evaluation, followed by treatment, second evaluation immediately after the end of treatment and control evaluation (third evaluation) 1 month after the end of treatment. The data collection period is planned as 1 year.
