Summary

This study looks at whether getting Chuna (a type of manual therapy) every two weeks for 20 weeks can reduce chronic neck pain and disability better than doing self-exercise and lifestyle changes alone. It involves 250 adults aged 19–69 with mild but long-lasting neck pain. The goal is to see if regular hands-on care keeps pain from coming back and improves daily life.
