The study will target patients with sequelae of cervical sprain (chronic whiplash injury), and will involve administering the manual therapy "Kansyoho" to soft tissues such as muscles and tendons, and verifying the clinical effectiveness before and after treatment.
Efficacy
Immediate effect of a single Kanshoho session performed on the study day.
Assessment time-points: immediately before the intervention (0 min) and immediately after completion (within 20 min).
Assessment variable: pain intensity measured with a 0-100 mm Visual Analog Scale (VAS).
Primary outcome: change in VAS score (post minus pre).
1. Change in cervical range of motion
Variable: sum of flexion, extension, right/left rotation, and right/left lateral flexion angles
Assessment time-points: immediately before the intervention (0 min) and immediately after completion (within 20 min); outcome = post minus pre difference
2. Ultrasonographic changes of soft tissue
Variable: immediate changes in echogenicity and morphology at the painful site on B-mode ultrasound
Assessment time-points: immediately before and immediately after the intervention using the same probe position
3. Procedure time
Variable: total duration (minutes) from the start of Kanshoho to pain disappearance or 20 minutes, whichever occurs first
Assessment time-points: recorded once on the intervention day
