Interventions
Group A will receive Mobilization with movement in which therapist manually applies a gentle mobilizing force to the joint while the patient actively performs a movement (2 to 3 sets) 6 to 10 repetitions per set in sitting position. Conventional treatment (TENS (2 to 10 Hz),10 mints, Heating pad, stretching of tight muscles Trapezius and SCM)should be included.
Group B will receive Facet joint oscillatory mobilization on the cervical spine C2-C7 (6 to 10 repetitions in each session) in the sitting position.Conventional treatment (TENS (2 to 10 Hz) 10 mints, Heating pad, stretching of tight muscles Trapezius and SCM) should be included.
