Brief Summary

The aim of this study is to examine the effects of neuroscience-based exercise approaches on pain, disability and gait parameters in individuals with non-specific chronic neck pain. Material- Methods Demographic data, gait parameters, Dizabilty level and craniovertebral angle values of individuals were evaluated with clinical data evaluation form, Spatio-Temporal Gait Analysis (LEGSystm), Neck Disability Index and photometer, respectively. The evaluations were performed 2 times before and after the treatment.

Conditions

Chronic Neck Pain; Persistent Neck Pain; Neuroscience Approach

Keywords

Neuroscience based exercises; Chronic neck pain; gait parameters

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (3)

• craniovertebral angle degree

  Craniovertebral angle is the most widely used measurement to assess Forward head posture. Craniovertebral angle is described as the acute angle formed between a horizontal line passing through the spinous process of the seventh cervical vertebra (C7) and the line connecting the midpoint of the tragus to the spinous process of C7.

• Legsystm

  The gait performance of the cases was evaluated with a spatio-temporal gait analysis device named LEGSystm developed by BioSensicstm. The device consists of two sensors. The sensors are placed 3-5 cm above the ankle of the subject to be tested with the help of velcro. The device is controlled from the computer with its own software and instantly sends the raw data it collects to the computer via Bluetooth. The software analyzes the raw data it receives from the device and turns it into results.The Modified Get Up and Go Test (MKYT), which is also supported by the legsyst, was used for assesment. The test was repeated 2 times and the average time was recorded. Legsystm provides information on double stride length, duration and speed of walking, as well as standing, turning, sitting times and total time.

• Neck Disability Index

  It is a questionnaire created to determine the level of disability caused by chronic neck pain in daily life.

Craniovertebral angle assesment

EXPERIMENTAL

Craniovertebral angle is the most widely used measurement to assess Forward head posture. Craniovertebral angle is described as the acute angle formed between a horizontal line passing through the spinous process of the seventh cervical vertebra (C7) and the line connecting the midpoint of the tragus to the spinous process of C7.
