This study was conducted to investigate the effect of Dalk and Ghamz on pain and disability in patients with nonspecific chronic neck pain.
This study was conducted on 37 patients with nonspecific chronic neck pain. Dalk and Ghamz massage were performed once a week for four sessions and the neck pain was evaluated by visual analog scale (VAS). In addition, the neck disability index (NDI) was used to assess the disability related to neck disorder. Data were analyzed with the SPSS software.
Among 37 patients, 85.5% were female and 13.5% were male. A significant decrease in VAS score was observed during the study (F = 57.77, p < 0.001). The NDI score decreased from 27.27 ± 5.83 to 19.08 ± 7.71 (p < 0.001).
Dalk and Ghamz massage in patients with nonspecific neck pain could reduce pain and disability.
