Interventions
Participants of group A will receive ventro-cephalic translatoric glides, total of 3 sets with 15 repetitions per set. PROCEDURE: 1. Patient sits on low chair with back straight and therapist stand facing the patient's right side. 2. Therapist's stable hand: with the thumb and index finger of left hand fixate caudal vertebra. 3. Therapist's moving hand: therapist will place his/her right hand on left side of patient's head and cervical spine than place little finger around cranial vertebra of segment to be moved. 4. Apply glide in ventro-cranial direction in the right angle of the treatment plane of the facet joint.
Participants of group B will receive Dorso-caudal translatoric glides, total of 3 sets with 15 repetitions per set. PROCEDURE: 1. Patient sits on low chair with back straight and therapist stand facing the patient's left side. 2. Therapist's stable hand: with the thumb and index finger of right hand fixate caudal vertebra. 3. Therapist's moving hand: therapist will place his/her left hand on right side of patient's head and cervical spine than place little finger around cranial vertebra of segment to be moved. 4. Apply glide in dorso-caudal direction in the right angle of the treatment plane of the facet joint.
