Condition: Neck Pain · Sponsor: Riphah International University
Neck pain is a common musculoskeletal disorder that significantly affects quality of life and daily activities, with an annual prevalence of 30-50% worldwide. This randomized clinical trial aims to compare the effects of myofascial release therapy and dynamic cupping on neck pain and posture in school-based children aged 7-12 years. A total of 40 children with neck pain and postural deviations will be recruited from schools and randomly assigned to either a myofascial release group or a dynamic cupping group (20 participants each) for a 6-week intervention. Children with skin conditions, neurological symptoms, recent analgesic use, or assistive device use will be excluded. Outcomes will be assessed using the Visual Analog Scale, goniometer, and plumb line test, and data will be analyzed using SPSS version 27 to determine the effectiveness of both interventions in reducing pain and improving posture.
