Could a simple neck stretch help people cut down on itch medication?

NCT ID NCT06751056

Summary

This small pilot study from Mayo Clinic is testing whether using a home neck traction device can help people with nerve-related itching reduce their need for certain medications. The study will enroll 12 adults who have persistent itching on their scalp, arms, or upper back and are already taking stable doses of specific anti-itch drugs. Researchers will measure if participants can lower their medication dosage after 12 weeks of using the neck traction device at home.
