Randomized Controlled Trial Comparative Study Clinical TrialThe immediate effects of a cervical lateral glide treatment technique in patients with neurogenic cervicobrachial pain.
Randomized clinical trial. ⋯ When a cervical dysfunction can be regarded as a cause of the neurogenic disorder or as a contributing factor that impedes natural recovery, a cervical lateral glide mobilization has positive immediate effects in patients with subacute peripheral neurogenic cervicobrachial pain. This movement-based approach seems preferable to ultrasound.

Randomized Controlled Trial Clinical TrialInitial effects of elbow taping on pain-free grip strength and pressure pain threshold.
Single-blind, placebo control, randomized, crossover, experimental study with repeated measures. ⋯ This preliminary study demonstrated an initial ameliorative effect of a taping technique for lateral epicondylalgia and suggests that it should be considered as an adjunct in the management of this condition.
