摘要：AIM The aim of this study was to observe the effects of conventional therapeutic exercises versus Maitland mobilization in the management of cervical spondylosis. METHOD A total 60 patients were divided into two groups:Group-A (N=30) & Group-B (N=30). Group-A patients were received Maitland mobilization & Group-B patients were received conventional physiotherapeutic exercises. All patients were given treatment six times per week for 15 days. Pain was measured using visual analog scale (VAS), disabilities were measured by Neck disability index (NDI) and range of motion by using Goniometer. RESULT The result of present study shows that the conventional physiotherapeutic exercises (group B) are significantly effective in reducing pain, improving NDI, muscle power and functional activities than Maitland mobilization alone (group B). CONCLUSION Therapeutic exercises are more clinically effective in terms of reducing pain, disabilities and improving range of motion in the patients with cervical spondylosis than application of Maitland mobilization alone.
