First seen Jun 26, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This study tested two treatments for text neck syndrome in 38 women aged 18-30 with chronic neck pain. One group received Mulligan mobilization (a hands-on joint technique) and the other did stabilization exercises to strengthen neck muscles. The trial measured pain, movement, balance, and blood markers of inflammation to see which approach works better.
