Purpose : to investigate the effectiveness of joint mobilization and myofascial release on the neck pain and to provide the effective treatment. Methods : Twenty-two subjects with neck pain participated in the experiment. All subjects were randomly assigned to a joint mobilization group(n=11) or a myofascial release group(n=11). Both groups received treatment for 15 minutes four times during 2 weeks. Cervical range of motion(CROM) instrument was used to measure range of neck motion, and Algometer was used to measure tenderness. All measurements of the subjects were measured at pre-treatment and post-treatment. Results : 1. The range of neck right side-bending motion of the myofascial release group was significantly increased(P<0.05), and the range of neck extension, right side-bending, left side-bending, right rotation motion of the joint mobilization group was significantly increased(P<0.05). 2. There was no significant improvement of tenderness in both groups(p>0.05). Conclusion : These data suggest that joint mobilization is more effective against increasing the range of motion than myofascial release, but myofascial release is more beneficial to tenderness than joint mobilization although it does not have a significant difference in the tenderness because there was a little improvement.
