- The comparison of manual therapeutic modalities on pain relief, function improvement, and neck range of motion restoration in subjects with non-specific neck pain.
- Neck trigger points and non-specific neck pain are very common disabilities across gender and occupation. The framework of this study includes a pre-test assessment of pain and function, 6 sessions of therapeutic treatments (exercise+stretch or exercise+stretch with the addition of a therapeutic modality), a mid-test assessment after your 3rd visit, and a post-test assessment after your 6th visit. You will also be scheduled for a 5-7 day follow-up visit to reassess pain and function.

- Investigating the effects of The Iron Neck and/or bodyweight neck strengthening exercises on neck range of motion, strength, and circumference
- The framework of this study includes a pre-test assessment of neck range of motion, neck strength, neck girth, and neck disability, 12 sessions of either The Iron Neck strength program or a callisthenic strength program, and a post-test assessment of variables. Head and neck muscle strengthening and range of motion are overlooked parts of training despite the neck muscle imbalances being the root of many upper extremity pathologies and a potential modifiable risk factor for concussion.

- The effect of pain patches on pain relief and activities of daily living in patients with acute mild or moderate musculoskeletal injury.
- The purpose of this study is to determine the efficacy of the two different pain patches applied directly to the skin over an acute (within 72 hours of occurrence) mild or moderate muscle or joint injury. We are investigating pain relief and functional improvements associated with these patches over a 10-day period of time.
