Earlier Motor Control Therapeutic Exercise and Proprioceptive Neuromuscular Facilitation have been studied to improve the condition of subjects with cervical spondylosis. Present study is aimed to investigate and compare the effectiveness of MCTE and PNF on pain and functional disability of subjects with cervical spondylosis.<\/p>\n Methodology:<\/strong> Sample of 60 subjects with cervical spondylosis was randomly divided into two groups (Group A consists of 30 subjects who were given exercise according to MCTE and Group B consists of 30 subjects who were given exercise according to PNF protocol). Cervical spine assessed according to physical assessment protocol, subject\u2019s pain and functional disability were measured with VAS and NDI.<\/p>\n Result:<\/strong> Intra-group significant differences were obtained between pre-post and post -follow-up interventions for all evaluated variables (P\u02c20.01)<\/em> in both groups. Intergroup significant differences only in muscular strength were found after 4 weeks of intervention (P\u02c20.01)<\/em>. PNF showed significantly more improvement at follow-up.<\/p>\n Conclusion:<\/strong> The study indicates both interventions are effective in improving the pain and functional status of patients and PNF shows improvement at follow up.<\/p>\n KEY WORDS: <\/strong>Cervical Spondylosis, Motor Control Therapeutic Exercise, Proprioceptive Neuromuscular Facilitation, Cervical Pain, Cervical Spine Disability.<\/p>\n REFERENCES<\/strong><\/p>\n [1].
