Summary
Study start date: February 1, 2023
Actual date on which the first participant was enrolled.Cervical spondylosis is a chronic degenerative process of the cervical spine. Pain in the neck and/or arms, neck stiffness, and headaches are the usual symptoms of cervical spondylosis . Low frequency high intensity magnetic therapy causes short term immediate effect in the relieve pain and improve function in patients with cervical spondylosis . Cervical stabilization causes decrease in neck pain and neck disability as well as a significant increase in cervical muscle endurance and cervical range of motion after the intervention. It also demonstrates a more ideal upper body posture and improved cervical proprioception. In the present study, therefore, we aimed to investigate adding low frequency high intensity magnetic therapy to CSE on management of cervical spondylosis. This study will be a benefit in the physical therapy field and may guide rehabilitation programs of physical therapy towards better results through decreasing time needed to perform activity of daily living, decreasing dependency and making patient an active member in society.
