Abstract
Background
Mini stability ball exercises and Pressure biofeedback unit exercises are effective in core muscles training with added advantage. There is a dearth of evidence in studies whether mini stability ball exercises are effective for reducing pain, endurance and disability in non-specific neck pain and comparison of mini stability ball exercises and pressure biofeedback training for non-specific neck pain. Hence the current study has been undertaken.
Aim
To compare the effect of mini stability ball exercises vs pressure biofeedback unit training on pain, endurance and disability in chronic non-specific neck pain.
Method
58 participants in between age group of 25 to 55 years with non-specific neck pain were randomly divided into 2 groups of 29 each. The study was carried over a period of 6 weeks, the participants Group A received mini stability ball exercises in addition to conventional physiotherapy treatment and Group B received pressure biofeedback unit training in addition to conventional physiotherapy treatment. Participants were assessed for pain, endurance and disability at baseline, end of 3rd week and 6th week of the study using the outcome measures Numeric pain rating scale (NPRS), Craniocervical flexion test (CCFT) and Neck disability Index (NDI).
Results and Conclusion
The participants who received pressure-biofeedback unit training with conventional treatment their NPRS, CCFT score and NDI score improved more significantly (p<0.0001) as compared to those who received mini stability ball exercises with conventional treatment. Abbreviations
NPRS- Numeric pain rating scale, NDI- Neck disability index, PBU- Pressure biofeedback unit, CCFT- Cranio-cervical flexion test, DCF- Deep cervical flexors, SCM- Sternocleidomastoid
