RELEVANCE OF STUDY: Cervicogenic headache is one of most common type of headache characterized by chronic hemi cranial pain that is referred to the head from either bony structures or soft tissues of the neck.
METHODOLOGY: A pre-post experimental study was conducted on 32 college going students. Subjects were selected according to the inclusion and exclusion criteria by Convenient sampling Technique. Pre treatment evaluation of HDI score, headache duration, headache intensity, headache frequency, passive flexion rotation test was done before intervention. Mulligan traction & Progressive neck muscle strengthening using pressure biofeedback were given for alternate day 3 sessions/ week, for 3 Weeks & Post intervention evaluation was done. Statistical analysis was carried out using paired t test.
RESULTS: On intragroup comparison using paired t test, there was significant difference between pre-post comparison of headache intensity (<0.0001), duration (<0.0001), frequency (<0.0001) & headache disability inventory (<0.0001) in college going students.
CONCLUSION: The upper cervical mulligan traction along with deep neck cervical muscles strengthening for 3 weeks is effective in reducing the symptoms of cervicogenic headache.
