This page is part of the 'Should I receive manual therapy and exercise for my neck pain?: A patient decision aid' resource for patients. Please see the main project page for further information, or proceed to Step 2 below to understand the evidence.
Neck pain alone for less than 6 weeks[edit | edit source]
There is low quality evidence available. Definitive recommendations cannot be made from this research.

Neck pain with headache for less than 6 weeks[edit | edit source]

Neck pain after whiplash injury for less than 6 weeks[edit | edit source]
Neck mobilizations and range of motion exercises performed frequently within your limits of pain provide greater pain relief in the short-term when compared to using analgesic medication and collar.[1][2]

Neck pain alone for more than 6 weeks[edit | edit source]
Neck exercises plus mobilization with or without manipulations or massage can help you in the short- and long-term. Moderate to high quality evidence suggests:
- Greater short-term pain relief than exercise alone, but no long-term difference in pain, function, or quality of life (QoL)[3][4][5].
- Greater short- and long-term improvements in pain and quality of life with manual therapy and exercise in comparison to manual therapy alone[3][6]
Outcome | Follow-up | Number of people experiencing greater change with manual therapy and exercise in comparison to manual therapy alone | Average difference in improvement between groups |
---|---|---|---|
Pain | Long-term |
[1 out of 8 to 9] |

Quality of life | Long-term |
[1 out of 9 to 52] |
Small moderate large |
- Greater long-term improvements in pain and function in comparison to advice[7]
Outcome | Follow-up | Number of people experiencing greater change with manual therapy and exercise in comparison to advice | Average difference in improvement between groups |

Manipulation and mobilization appear to have similar effects for improving pain and function in the intermediate-term[9] |
Exercise alone is also effective in the short- and long-term
- Neck and upper back range of motion and low-load strengthening exercises provide reductions in pain, improvements in function, and patient satisfaction. There is no difference in global perceived effect or quality of life[3][10][11][12]
- Upper extremity stretching, strengthening and endurance training do not provide any additional benefit to normal activities in terms of neck pain and function[13]
Outcome | Follow-up | Number of people experiencing greater change with upper extremity exercise in comparison to a control group | Average difference in improvement between groups |

Manual therapy and exercise provide greater short and long-term improvements in pain and function compared to no treatment[5]
