结局指标
主要结局
Numerical rating scale
时间窗: Baseline (after randomization), at 4th week (after 8th session), at 8th week (after 16th session), 3 months (after randomization)
Measured pain intensity with 0 no pain and 100 the worst pain ever.
Neck Disability Index
时间窗: Baseline (after randomization), at 4th week (after 8th session), at 8th week (after 16th session), 3 months (after randomization)
This questionnaire has been designed to give us information as to how your neck pain has affected your ability to manage in everyday life. 0= no disability 100= severe disability
