Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Functional Disability. Timepoint: Total intervention protocol will be given for three weeks of duration, 3 sessions per week for three weeks, Outcomes will be assessed at Baseline, at the end of 3 week( last treatment session) and at the end of 6th week. Method of measurement: NDI is the self-report questionnaire that is designed to determine how the neck pain affects a patient’s daily life and the disability of patients with neck pain.
