High Tone Power Therapy for Neck Pain in Cervical Radiculopathy

Is this trial a fit for you?

A plain-English reading of the study's rules. Only the study team can confirm whether you qualify.

What this trial studies

This study investigates the effects of High Tone Power Therapy combined with a selected exercise program on neck pain and proprioception in patients suffering from cervical radiculopathy. Forty-two participants will be randomly assigned to either a control group receiving only the exercise program or a study group receiving both the exercise program and High Tone Power Therapy, administered three times a week for four weeks. Evaluations will include assessments of cervical joint position error, neck disability index, cervical range of motion, and visual analogue scale for pain. The goal is to determine if the addition of High Tone Power Therapy enhances recovery compared to exercise alone.
