OA06.03. Spinal manipulative therapy, supervised rehabilitative exercise and home exercise for seniors with neck pain
نویسندگان
چکیده
Purpose Neck pain (NP) is a common condition in old age, leading to impaired functional ability and decreased independence. Spinal manipulation and exercise are common and effective treatments for the general NP population; however, their effectiveness among seniors is unknown. The primary aim of this randomized clinical trail was to assess the relative shortand long-term clinical effectiveness of spinal manipulative therapy (SMT) and supervised rehabilitative exercise (SRE), both in combination with and compared to home exercise (HE) alone, in NP patients 65 years and older.
