Abstract

Cervicogenic headache is relatively common and still controversial form of headache. Cervicogenic headache has been classified by International Headache Society and accounts for 15% to 20% of all chronic and recurrent headaches. The estimated prevalence of disorder ranging from 0.7% to 13.8%. The individuals with chronic cervicogenic headache experience considerable restriction of daily function, limitation of social participation, and emotional distress. In addition, these individuals report a lower quality of life than other individuals. The study was conducted with an aim to compare the effectiveness of sustained natural apophyseal glide and sustained natural apophyseal glide alongwith chin tuck exercise. Both these interventions are useful in treating cervicogenic headache in concern of pain and increase in cervical flexion rotation range of motion. Thus it was concluded that there was significant decrease in pain and increase in cervical flexion rotation range of motion in both the group. But there was no significant difference between the groups.
