Adding Rib Mobilization to Diaphragm Release Techniques in Patients With Non-Specific Neck Pain: Randomized Controlled Trial.

A randomized controlled trial examined whether combining rib mobilization with diaphragm release techniques produced better outcomes than diaphragm release alone in patients with non-specific neck pain. The study, published in Physiotherapy Research International, assessed the additive effect of rib mobilization as a component of a manual therapy approach targeting the thoracic region. Findings provide clinicians with evidence to guide manual therapy decision-making for this common and often challenging patient population.
