Intervention / Comparator Agent  
Type  Name  Details 
Intervention  Matrix Rhythm Therapy  1) Matrix is a cell biological therapy which activates and rebalances specific physiological vibrations of skeletal muscle and nervous system. Matrix reactivates the cell metabolism and normalizes the physiological process by depth-effective rhythmical phase synchronous magneto mechanical oscillations. The frequency of matrix is modulated between 8 and 12 Hz given for 1 sessions/day for 2 week. In this process the cells are stimulated and the entire tissue is rhythmically resynchronized.  
Comparator Agent  Muscle Energy Technique (MET)  Muscle Energy Technique (MET) is an active manual technique in which the physiotherapist does not control corrective force. The patient, in fact, should be able to produce oriented voluntary contraction of varying intensity. In 1989, Greenman PE described isometric, concentric and eccentric contractions as types of muscle contraction to perform in MET.

Brief Summary  

Matrix Rhythm Therapy was extensively used in Orthopedic, Neurological and vascular conditions. A new therapeutic and clinical modality matrix rhythm therapy was developed by Dr. Ulrich Georg Randoll is based on research carried out in 1989-1997 at the department of oral and maxillofacial surgery and trauma surgery of Erlangen University Muscle Energy Technique (MET) is an active manual technique in which the physiotherapist does not control corrective force. The patient, in fact, should be able to produce oriented voluntary contraction of varying intensity. we need to identify whether matrix rhythm therapy and muscle energy techniques will have a significant effect on pain, range of motion, and strength in patients with neck pain. So, this study will be carried out with the aim of comparing the effectiveness of matrix rhythm therapy and muscle energy technique (MET) on pain, ROM, and neck muscle strength in patients with neck pain.
