Background: Nonspecific neck pain is a common and increasing health problem, one of its most important causes is trapezius trigger points. This is a very common cause of physical limitations and a decline in quality of life. Objective: The purpose of this study was to compare the effect of and Ice massage versus the effect of positional release on treating non-specific neck pain.in reducing pain, improving function, pain pressure threshold and increasing cervical range of motion (ROM) Patients and methods: fifty-one subjects from both sexes (9males and 42 females) with Trapezius trigger points took part in this study. They were aged from 18 to 35 years old and selected from outpatient clinic, faculty of physical therapy, Horus University-Egypt in New Damietta city, Patients were randomized into three groups of equal numbers (17 patients for each group) Group A(ice massage):they received ice massage plus conventional therapy, Group B: (positional release) they received positional release plus conventional therapy, Group C: (Control group) they received conventional therapy All patients in all groups received conventional therapy(tens application & stretching exercise and life style modification) for three times/ 6weeks . All outcome measures were measured for all patients before and after 6 weeks of treatment application through VAS (for measuring pain intensity), Bournemouth Questionnaire (for measuring function), Algometer (for measuring pain pressure threshold) and CROM (for measuring cervical range of motion). Results: Post treatment, the one-way ANOVA test found that there was a highly significant improvement in all measured variables (P<0.001) in group B, there was a significant difference between group A&C in favor to group A.as there was an increase in ROM, functional abilities and pain threshold (p<0.001). There was a less improvement in group (C) than other groups. Conclusion: It was concluded that: 6 weeks of positional release plus conventional therapy can significantly decrease pain, improve function, pain pressure threshold and rom.
