Neck pain sufferers: simple exercises may improve your balance
NCT ID NCT07502625
First seen Jun 25, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This study tests whether a program of vestibular rehabilitation exercises can improve balance, reduce dizziness, and ease pain in people with cervical spondylosis (neck arthritis). Sixty-two adults aged 40 to 60 with chronic neck pain and balance issues will be assigned to either the exercise program or standard physical therapy. The goal is to see if these targeted movements help the body's balance system work better.
