Comparison Between Inhibitive Distraction and Intermittent Cervical Traction on Pain and Disability in Patient’s With Non-Specific Neck Pain
Journal Title: Journal of Medical Science And clinical Research - Year 2014, Vol 2, Issue 12
Abstract
Aim: Aim of this study is to assess and compare the effect of cervical traction or inhibitive distraction on pain and disability in Patient with non-specific neck pain. Methodology: 27 Patients were randomly selected from the community who volunteered to participate in the study. Patients were randomly assigned in to two interventions: Inhibitive Distraction and Intermittent Cervical Traction. Group A and Group B. Group a received inhibitive distraction with isometric muscle training and Group B received intermittent mechanical cervical traction with isometric muscle training. Both the intervention was given for 4 weeks. Isometric muscle training were given for 5 repetition per session thrice a week , inhibitive distraction were applied for 3 minutes and 5 repetition thrice a week and mechanical cervical traction were applied for 15 minutes, hold and rest time was 8 second for thrice a week. Outcome measure; Neck Disability Index (NDI) and Visual analog scale (VAS)were collected at before and after intervention. Results; Patients in all groups improved on the NDI and VAS,.When we compaired the two groups, we found that intermittent cervical traction was far superior than inhibitive distraction . Significant improvement in neck pain and functional disability (P≤ 0.05) also out of inhibitive distraction and intermittent cervical traction, Intermittent Cervical Traction showed better improvement. Conclusion; It can be concluded from our study that the intermittent cervical traction is better than inhibitive distraction over the neck pain and Functional disability in patients with non-specific neck pain.
