Exclusion criteria

Exclusion criteria: Experimental group: ? have other congenital or known musculoskeletal, neuromuscular, neurological, endocrine, psychiatric, infectious, traumatic diseases (psychiatric disorders, history of cancer, pregnancy, disc prolapse, spondylolisthesis, vertebral fractures, spinal stenosis, arthritis, osteoporosis, systemic rheumatoid disease, thoracic outlet syndrome, severe night pain, specific pathological conditions (such as signs of infection), and other musculoskeletal disorders affecting the cervical region, neck trauma within 48 hours) ?
