Study: NCT05803954

Intervention type: OTHER
Group type: EXPERIMENTAL
Intervention: Sustained natural apophyseal glides (SNAGS)
Description: SNAGS will be applied with the patient sitting comfortably on a stool. The therapist stand behind the patient and the medial border of one thumb's distal phalanx is placed on the articular pillar on the chosen side of the suspected site of lesion. The thumb nail slope at approximately 45 degree (in the direction of the eyeball). SNAGS mulligan will be given by active movement followed by passive overpressure based on the movement restricted by frequency of treatment will be three sets of ten repetitions. SNAG the anteroposterior mobilization of the second cervical vertebrae is sustained for 10 to 30 s depending on response. A maximum of 6 repetitions will be given if there is a reduction in headache intensity at the time of the first application. A total of 20 oscillations (1 oscillation/1 second) will be given to each joint with a total duration of 15 minutes

Group type: EXPERIMENTAL
Intervention: Neural mobilization
Description: Neural mobilization will be applied with grade three neural mobilization and traditional therapy: Subjects will be placed in supine position and remained relaxed with the feet uncrossed. The patient will be slightly angled obliquely for easier access to the scapula. The therapist will be depressed the scapula with concomitant upper extremity joint positioning as per median nerve bias i.e., ULTT2 (shoulder abduction, elbow extension with forearm supination, wrist and fingers extended and ulnar deviated and thumb abduction). The wrist will be used as a tension factor and at the point where tension was felt by the therapist and perceived by the subject. Grade 3 oscillations were given rhythmically and slowly to each joint from proximal to distal. A total of 20 oscillations (1 oscillation/1 second) were given to each joint with a total duration of 15 minutes.

Intervention: Traditional physical therapy
Description: traditional therapy will be applied in the form of stretching for bilateral upper and middle trapezius muscles and bilateral neck rotators and isometric strengthening exercises for neck rotators, extensors, side bending muscles. Exercise was repeated for ten repetitions per session. In addition to hot pack was placed over the neck and upper part of shoulders musculature. This was being applied for ten min, over middle trapezius trigger Point itself.
