Target number of participants: 36
Treatments
Experimental: intervention grup: standart treatment and segmental mobilization grup
Mobilisation specifically on the C7 segment will be performed by the physiotherapist 2 times a week for 3 weeks, making decisions on the choice of key parameters including treatment technique, spinal level, degree, direction, side and duration.
Experimental: intervention grup : standart treatment and deep friction
The patients were asked to stretch for 20 s with the other hand with the shoulder in internal rotation, elbow in extension, forearm in pronation, wrist in flexion and ulnar deviation. In the first week, stretching exercises were recommended to be performed 3 sets a day, 5⨯20 s in one set and 45 s rest interval before strengthening exercises. The application will be performed with the thumb in the transverse direction, with the pressure tolerated by the individual, for 10 minutes after numbness is obtained, the treatment lasts approximately 10-15 minutes.
