J Man Manip Ther . 2022 May 19;1-8.Twenty-eight patients who were diagnosed with chronic neck pain with a depressed scapula were randomized to either the active scapular correction group (n=14) or control (n=14).

The results of this trial showed better pain and cervical range of motion immediately post-intervention in the intervention group.
