Manual therapy reduces pain, disability and oxidative stress in patients with chronic non-specific neck pain; a double-blind, randomized pilot study

The results indicate that HVLA-LVLA MT causes significant decreases in pain and OS levels and improves function. Therefore, OS assessment in patients with CNNP could assist the evaluation of MT effectiveness in pain relief.
