Cervico-brachial pain syndrome is an upper quarter pain condition in which mechanosensitive neural tissue is considered a primary feature. A randomized clinical trial was conducted to determine the clinical effect of two manual therapy interventions. Thirty subjects were randomly allocated to one of two groups. One manual therapy intervention group consisted of contralateral CLG. The other involved neural mobilization using two ended sliders. The treatment period lasted 4 weeks. In both the groups patients received TENS also. Pain intensity and neck disability was measured by Neck Disability Index, before at 2weeks and at 4 weeks of treatment period. The findings suggest that both manual physiotherapy interventions combined with TENS are effective in improving pain intensity and functional disability levels. A group difference was observed favoring contralateral CLG having a significantly lower score.
