Neck pain can arise as a chronic problem or from an injury such as a car accident. A study published in the Journal of Manipulative and Physiologic Therapeutics
examined the effectiveness of manipulation by a chiropractor versus
mobilization by a therapist for neck pain and decreased range of motion.
Seventy patients with neck pain participated in this study. Some
received mobilization by a therapist and others received a manipulation
by a chiropractor. The investigators concluded that a single
manipulation by a chiropractor was more effective in reducing neck pain
and increasing range of motion than receiving mobilization by a
therapist.
