Abstract

Background: One of the most prevalent conditions affecting the cervical nerve root is cervical spine radiculopathy (CSR). Pain that radiates down one or both upper extremities in a pattern is the hallmark of CR. This discomfort is related to one or more cervical nerve roots being constricted or inflamed. Objective: This review article aimed to determine the effectiveness of neural mobilization on neck disabilities in patients with CR. Methods:  We conducted a date-unrestricted search of the Cochrane Controlled Trials Register on Cervical radiculopathy, Neural mobilization (NM), Neurodynamics, Neural tension and Neural sliding. We used Science direct, PubMed, and Google database between September 2023 and the date of launch. The search for literature was limited to English language works. Dissertations, oral presentations, conference papers, unpublished articles, and abstracts from smaller scientific investigations were excluded. Conclusions: This review supported neural mobilization, which decreases pain, improves neck impairments, and promotes cervical ROM in individuals with CR. Additional clinical studies are required to support the therapeutic impact of this strategy.
