Summary

This study tested whether repositioning the shoulder blade (scapula) can reduce neck pain and improve movement in people with chronic neck pain and scapular dysfunction. 78 adults were randomly assigned to active repositioning, passive repositioning, or a sham (fake) procedure. Researchers measured pain, range of motion, and sensitivity immediately after and 30 minutes later.
