Effect of neuromuscular inhibition technique on subjects with neck pain and forward head posture .
Effect of integrated neuromuscular inhibition technique on subjects with neck pain and forward head posture: a randomized controlled trial.
J Man Manip Ther. 2025 01-Oct:. 10.1080/10669817.2025.2476662Forty participants with neck pain and forward head posture were enrolled in a randomized controlled trial and allocated to receive either integrated neuromuscular inhibition technique plus conventional therapy (Group A) or conventional therapy alone (Group B). All participants completed the study and were included in the final analysis. The intervention was delivered three times per week for one month. The primary outcome of interest was craniovertebral angle. Secondary outcomes included pain intensity measured using the visual analogue scale, pressure pain threshold of the upper trapezius and suboccipital muscles, and cervical range of motion measured with a clinometer application. Outcomes were assessed at baseline and after completion of treatment. Overall, the results of the study revealed that both groups improved significantly; however, participants receiving integrated neuromuscular inhibition technique demonstrated significantly greater improvements in craniovertebral angle, pain reduction, pressure pain threshold, and cervical range of motion compared with conventional therapy alone. These findings suggest that adding integrated neuromuscular inhibition technique provides superior short-term benefits in individuals with neck pain and forward head posture.
