Abstract

Because of their disparate results, cervical proprioception training and neurodynamic mobilization have each been separately recommended for the treatment of cervical radiculopathy as well as carpal tunnel syndrome. However, investigations for the treatment of Double Crush Syndrome have not looked into the combined effect of these treatments. Therefore, the goal of this study was to ascertain how patients with double crush syndrome's concerning postural control, cervical proprioceptive sense, and electrophysiological findings of the median nerve were affected by cervicocephalic kinesthetic sensibility training coupled with neurodynamic mobilization of the median nerve. Methods: In an experimental investigation with 60 patients of both gender who had double crush syndrome, 30 patients from each group. Group A and B were randomly assigned. Cervical proprioceptive training and neurodynamic mobilization for the median nerve was given to Group A, Group B had a conventional physical therapy program. For six weeks, there would be three treatment sessions each week. Outcome indicators including median nerve's electrodiagnostic examination and cervicocephalic kinesthetic sensibility measurements was taken before, three weeks later, and at the conclusion of the sixth week following therapy. Results: After six weeks of therapy, when comparing the means of the two groups after the intervention, there is a statistically substantial (p<0.05) difference in the enhancement of the end measures. Subjects in Group A improved more significantly than those in Group B. Conclusion: The current study finds that the application of a cervical proprioceptive training programme along with neurodynamic mobilization for the median nerve significantly improved patients with double crush syndrome's sensorimotor control of the neck, postural stability, and electro-physiological study results of the median nerve.
