Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| The outcome measures in this study will include pain intensity, neck disability, and kinesiophobia. Pain intensity will be assessed using the Numerical Pain Rating Scale (NPRS). Neck disability will be evaluated using the Neck Disability Index (NDI), a validated questionnaire that measures the degree of functional limitation experienced due to neck pain in daily activities. To assess the psychological aspect of pain, particularly the fear of movement, kinesiophobia will be measured using the Tampa Scale for Kinesiophobia (TSK), which quantifies movement-related fear.Timepoint: Baseline Measurement (Day-0), Post intervention measurement (AFTER 2 WEEKS) | — |
