Investigation and comparison of spinal mobilization with arm movement in Mulligan's method and retraction mobilization with McKenzie's method on pain, electromyographic activity, kinetics and kinematics of the cervical spine in people with cervical radiculopathy
Investigation and comparison of mobilization with Mulligan's cervical spine movement and McKenzie's retraction mobilization on pain, kinetics and kinematics of cervical spine in people with cervical radiculopathy.
Design
Sampling of this study will be in the form of placing an advertisement that the population under investigation is people with CR complications who will enter the study after checking the entry and exit criteria by the researcher. Candidates in this study will be selected for the study with knowledge of the research protocol, full satisfaction and compliance with the principles and rules of the medical ethics committee. The participants come to the laboratory at different times and have no information about how other groups are treated.
Settings and conduct
using a sealed envelope, and the colleague who records the kinetic and kinematic information is not aware of the grouping.
The location of the study is in the laboratory of motion analysis of Tarbiat Modares University in Tehran.
Participants/Inclusion and exclusion criteria
