Abstract

The objective of this research is to study the effects of static resistance training of neck muscles on neck-type cervical spondylosis (NTCS) with upper cross syndrome (UCS). The NTCS patients with UCS were randomly divided into an observation group and a control group. The observation group was given conventional therapy plus static resistance training of neck muscles, while the control group was given conventional therapy plus ordinary cervical exercises. The scores of the visual analogue scale (VAS), neck disability index (NDI), and clinical assessment scale for cervical spondylosis (CASCS) and the cervical physiological curve were compared, and the overall efficacy was analyzed. After treatment, the VAS and NDI scores were lower in the observation group than in the control group. The cervical physiological curve was more significant in the observation group. The CASCS score was higher in the observation group than the control group after treatment. The observation group had obviously superior clinical efficacy. Therefore, in the treatment of NTCS with UCS, static resistance training of neck muscles can ameliorate the clinical symptoms of patients and restore the cervical physiological curve, with definite short-term efficacy, making it superior to ordinary cervical exercises, so it is worthy of clinical popularization.
