The importance of an early positive change in pain and function in determining overall clinical improvement following strengthening treatment for chronic neck pain

This study tested the relationship between change in NDI scores after 3 weeks of strengthening exercise and response to strengthening exercise at the final assessment. A change in the NDI of 7 points after 3 weeks correctly classified 93.2% of participants that would display a positive change at the final assessment. This minor thesis was written by a post-graduate student as part of the requirements of the Master of Health Science (Osteopathy) program.
