ClinConnect Summary
This clinical trial is looking to understand which patients with neck and arm pain, caused by nerve issues, might benefit most from physiotherapy treatment. Researchers want to see if certain characteristics can help identify a group of patients who respond better to manual physiotherapy. Participants will undergo an assessment before starting treatment, and then they will receive six sessions of hands-on physiotherapy, along with exercises they can do at home to help their nerves.
To participate, individuals should have pain that affects one side of the neck and arm, but they should not have any severe underlying conditions, such as tumors or neurological diseases. The trial is open to people aged 18 and older. After completing the treatment, participants will be assessed again to see if their pain has improved. This study aims to tailor physiotherapy more effectively for those who need it most.
