Abstract
Aim. To compare the effect of Dynamic Neuromuscular Stabilisation and Maitland mobilisation in improving nerve conductivity and muscle activity in patients with cervical radiculopathy Methodology. A pilot study done on 34 subjects with unilateral cervical radiculopathy was conducted based on selection criteria. Subjects were divided into 2 groups. Group DNS received Dynamic neuromuscular stabilisation exercise. Group MM received Maitland mobilisation. Pre-test was done using NCV for median nerve conductivity and EMG for pronator teres muscle activity. Following the intervention’s termination, a post-test was conducted using the same measurements. The gathered data was put to use in statistics. Result. The statistics revealed that there is no significant difference between two groups. But group DNS who were treated with Dynamic neuromuscular stabilisation showed a better improvement in nerve conductivity and muscle activity than the subjects treated with Maitland mobilisation in cervical radiculopathy.
