Detaljeret beskrivelse

This randomized controlled trial aims to compare the effectiveness of Kaltenborn and Maitland mobilization techniques in individuals with cervicogenic headache. The study will assess the effects of both interventions on pain intensity, cervical range of motion, neck disability, and headache-related disability. A total of 44 participants aged 18-40 years with clinically confirmed cervicogenic headache will be randomly allocated into two groups. Both groups will receive baseline physiotherapy treatment, while Group A will receive Kaltenborn mobilization and Group B will receive Maitland mobilization for 8 weeks, with three sessions per week. The findings will help determine which mobilization technique is more effective and provide evidence to guide physiotherapists in the management of cervicogenic headache.

Våben og indgreb

Deltagergruppe / Arm
Intervention / Behandling
Eksperimentel: Maitland mobilization
Maitland mobilization will consist of passive oscillatory mobilization techniques applied to the symptomatic cervical segments. Mobilization grades I-IV will be selected according to the participant's pain severity, irritability, and limitation of cervical movement. Each mobilization will be performed for 30-60 seconds and repeated for 2-3 sets per affected segment, with the aim of reducing pain and improving cervical joint mobility and range of motion.

Aktiv komparator: Kaltenborn Mobilization
Kaltenborn mobilization will consist of sustained passive joint mobilization techniques applied to hypomobile cervical segments. Grades I-III mobilizations will be selected according to the participant's pain level, joint mobility, and clinical findings. Each mobilization will be performed for 2-3 sets per affected cervical segment, with the aim of reducing pain, improving joint play, and increasing cervical range of motion.

Foranstaltningsbeskrivelse
Tidsramme
Numeric Pain Rating Scale (NPRS)
Tidsramme: baseline and after 8 weeks
The **Numeric Pain Rating Scale (NPRS)** is an 11-point scale used to assess pain intensity, ranging from **0 (no pain) to 10 (worst possible pain)**. Participants will be asked to rate their current neck/headache pain by selecting the number that best represents their pain intensity.
baseline and after 8 weeks
Neck Disability Index (NDI)
Tidsramme: baseline and after 8 weeks
The **Neck Disability Index (NDI)** is a standardized questionnaire used to assess neck pain-related disability and its impact on daily activities. It consists of **10 items**, with higher scores indicating greater levels of disability.
baseline and after 8 weeks
Inclinometer to asses ROM
Tidsramme: baseline and after 8 weeks
An **inclinometer** is a reliable measuring device used to assess cervical spine range of motion (ROM). It measures cervical flexion, extension, lateral flexion, and rotation in degrees, allowing objective evaluation of changes in cervical mobility before and after treatment.
baseline and after 8 weeks
Headache Disability Index (HDI)
Tidsramme: baseline and after 8 weeks
The **Headache Disability Index (HDI)** is a standardized questionnaire used to assess the impact of headache on a participant's daily activities and emotional well-being. It evaluates functional and emotional limitations associated with headache, with higher scores indicating greater headache-related disability.
