Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Expected to find a decrease in cervical pain by the pressure pain threshold assessment. We will observe the changes by the observation of a variation of at least 5% in pre and post-intervention measurements;Expected to find an improvement in vocal quality and self-perception, through voice recordings with the emission of the vowel /a/ and acoustic analysis of the voice. We will observe the changes by the observation of a variation of at least 5% in pre and post-intervention measurements | — |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Expected to find an improvement in the electrical activity of the cervical muscles by electromyography. We will observe the changes by the observation of a variation of at least 5% in pre and post-intervention measurements | — |
