Brief summary

The purpose of current study is to examine the comparative effects of Intermittent Mechanical Cervical Traction and Maitland Cervical Mobilization on Pain and Range of Motion in patients with Cervical Spondylosis. Group A will recieve intermittent mechanical cervical traction, while Group B will recieve Maitland mobilization. Pain intensity and cervical range of motion will be measured at baseline, the 3rd week, and the 6th week using standardized assessment tools.

Interventions

In group A, patients will receive mechanical cervical traction. Physiotherapist will apply it. 2 sessions per week for 6 weeks. Mechanical traction is a therapeutic intervention wherein a mechanical device is employed to administer a controlled and mild tensile strain to the cervical region. Assume a supine position on a horizontal plane. Position the traction apparatus beneath the cervical region and upper thoracic region. Modify the parameters of the traction apparatus to ensure that the appl

Assume a supine position on a horizontal plane. Position the traction apparatus beneath the cervical region and upper thoracic region. Modify the parameters of the traction apparatus to ensure that the applied force is conducive to a comfortable experience. Please remain calm and permit the traction machine to perform its intended function. Commence with a brief duration of traction, specifically spanning a period of 10 minutes with 10 seconds of traction and 5 seconds relax.
