The majority of cases of neck pain originate in mechanical factors: repetitive movements, lack of work breaks, static jobs and holding the head and arm position for long period of time. The structures being deformed in mechanical neck pain may be the skin, subcutaneous tissue, capsule of synovial apophyseal joints, longitudinal ligaments, ligamentum flavum, interspinous ligament, and annulus fibrosus of intervertebral disc. Specific treatment for mechanical neck pain includes moist heat pack, cervical mobilization, cervical manipulation, strength training and postural re-education (12). Manual therapy is commonly used in the treatment of mechanical neck pain. Manual techniques include positional release technique, muscle energy technique, myofascial release technique, cyriax technique, NAGS and SNAGS, manual pressure release, proprioceptive neuromuscular facilitation and ischemic compression.
