As was proven by clinical studies, the results of the flexion test, a specific technique applied in manual therapy, can be used for differential diagnostics of pathological changes in the cervical spine of dysplastic and "mechanical" origin. This fact is taken into consideration in the elaboration of the prevention and rehabilitation programs. The present report is based on the results of the rehabilitative treatment of the children and young athletes presenting with pathological changes in the cervical spine.

Background: Neck pain is common among people with headache, including migraines, tension headache, and cervicogenic headache. Neck pain has also been associated with self-reported sinus headache in individuals who were not formally diagnosed with headache attributed to rhinosinusitis (HAR). Neck pain, in individuals diagnosed with HAR according to the International Classification of Headache Disorders, has not been investigated.

Objective: Our primary objective was to evaluate the safety and feasibility of transcranial direct current stimulation combined with exercise therapy for the treatment of cervicogenic headache. Our exploratory objectives compared symptoms of headache, mood, pain, and quality of life between active and sham transcranial direct stimulation combined with exercise therapy.
Background: Cervicogenic headache arises from injury to the cervical spine or degenerative diseases impacting cervical spine structure resulting in pain, reduced quality of life, and impaired function.
Differences in Sensorimotor Integration, Cervical Sensorimotor Control, and Cognitive-Motor Dual Tasking Costs in Chronic Non-Specific Neck Pain Patients with High vs. Low Catastrophizing Tendencies Compared to Healthy Controls.

Chronic non-specific neck pain (CNSNP) is a common condition and its relationship to the pain catastrophizing construct in terms of sensorimotor functions and dual task performance is not fully understood. We aimed to investigate the differences in sensorimotor integration, cervical sensorimotor control, and cognitive-motor dual tasking abilities between CNSNP patients (> 3 months) with high versus low catastrophizing tendencies and healthy controls. Ninety participants were recruited, 30 asymptomatic controls, and 60 patients with CNSNP; 30 scoring high (> 75 percentile) and 30 scoring low (< 25th percentile) on the pain catastrophizing scale (PCS).

Introduction And Importance: Grisel syndrome (GS) is a rare but potentially lethal condition characterized by non-traumatic atlantoaxial subluxation primarily affecting pediatric population following inflammatory condition of head and neck. Early diagnosis and prompt treatment is crucial for better management of symptoms and better outcomes.
