Summary

This trial tests whether adding a manual therapy technique called Mulligan mobilization to standard physiotherapy can better ease chronic neck pain and improve neck movement. Adults aged 18 to 65 with neck pain lasting at least three months will receive either standard physiotherapy alone or standard physiotherapy plus Mulligan mobilization for four weeks. Researchers will compare changes in pain, range of motion, and daily function between the two groups.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance: Mulligan mobilization (manual therapy technique) added to a conventional physical therapy program
What this could lead to: If effective, adding Mulligan mobilization to standard physiotherapy could offer a simple, drug-free way to better relieve chronic neck pain and improve neck movement.
What could go wrong: This is a small, early-stage trial, so results may not apply to everyone. The added benefit over standard physiotherapy alone may be modest, and manual therapy carries a small risk of temporary soreness.
