Observed Actions in Chronic Neck Pain

The aim of the present protocol is to prove if the observed actions (AOb) will improve the cervical range of motion (CROM) in patients with non-specific chronic neck pain (CNP). This study is a parallel-group double blind randomized clinical. Outcome measures were CROM, and pressure pain detection thresholds (PPDT) with a digital algometer. The follow-up will consist of three evaluations: pre- treatment, post-treatment and 10 minutes after second measurement (motor imagery).
