Abstract:

Objective To systematically review the clinical efficacy of Yoga in intervening pain, dysfunction and joint range of motion in patients with neck pain. Methods The databases of PubMed, Cochrane Library, Embase, CNKI, WanFang Data and VIP were subject to computer retrieval, and randomized controlled trials about Yoga in the treatment of neck pain at home and abroad were colleced. The acquired literature were subject to the meta-analysis with RevMan5.3 software after literature screening,data extraction and bias risk evaluation. Results Finally, a total of 384 patients with 6 literature were included. Meta-analysis showed that head pain relief of patients undergoing Yoga (MD[95%CI]=-1.20[-1.40,-1.00],P<0.01) was better than that of patients in the control group,the neck dysfunction improvement of patients undergoing Yoga (MD[95%CI]=-5.33[-7.19,-3.47],P<0.01) was better than that of patients in the control group,and the range of motion of improved neck ante-flexion (MD[95%CI]=8.04[5.24,10.84], P<0.01), rear protraction (MD[95%CI]=8.57[5.41,11.74],P<0.01) were better than those in the control group.Subgroup analysis showed that Yoga was better than conventional intervention in the control group for relieving pain in patients with cervical spondylosis or non-specific neck pain. Conclusion Yoga delivers significant effects in relieving the pain,neck dysfunction and range of motion of patients with neck pain.
