Abstract
Background: Cervicogenic headache is a major problem in many people suffering from upper cervical dysfunction with a great conflict in its physical therapy management. Objective: The aim of the work was to determine the effect of Adding Kinesio Tape To Mulligan's Mobilization in patients with a cervicogenic headache. Patients and methods: Fifty four patients with cervicogenic headache included in the study; from outpatient clinic, Faculty of physical therapy, Cairo University Hospital (Kasr El Ainy), were randomly assigned into two equal groups ; group A (Kinesiotaping and mulligan techniques), Group B (mulligan techniques). Their mean ± SD age, weight, height and BMI were 37.74±5.55 years, 80.62±6.27 kg, 170.11±5.5 cm and 27.48±2.73 kg/m² respectively. The visual analogue scale (VAS) is used for measuring intensity of cervicogenic headache. Frequency and duration of cervicogenic headache are collected from subjective data of patients. Correlations between the examined parameters were also measured. Kinesiotaping application with mulligan SNAGs were companied in group A and mulligan SNAGs done only in group B. Results: There was significant improvement of VAS outcome scores and frequency and duration of cervicogenic headache in Group (A) more than Group (B). Conclusion: It could be concluded that adding kinesio tape to mulligan's mobilization in patients with a cervicogenic headache is found to be an effective in treatment of cervicogenic headache.
