Summary

This study looked at whether a gentle muscle release technique can help breastfeeding mothers with neck pain. Fifty women with postpartum neck pain were split into two groups: both received posture advice and exercises, but one group also got a positional release for the upper trapezius muscle. Researchers measured pain intensity, pressure pain threshold, and neck disability to see if the added technique made a difference.
