Interventions
This is a technique that uses gentle body positioning passively to treat muscles and joints pain. So, this can be effective for neck pain in patients with CGH
This technique uses patient's own muscles to treat muscles and joint restrictions. So, this technique can be prove affective for neck pain and limited range in patients with CGH
