Abstract EN
Cervicogenic dizziness is dizziness triggered by movement or positioning of the cervical spine and is often accompanied by neck pain or stiffness.
This is a prospective, pragmatic, assessor-blind, randomized controlled trial aimed at testing the efficacy and safety of adjuvant Chuna Manual Therapy (CMT) in patients with cervicogenic dizziness under usual care treatments.
Fifty patients with cervicogenic dizziness will be randomly allocated to CMT or usual care (UC) groups in a 1 : 1 ratio.
Extensive screening procedures, including examinations for central nervous system problems and nystagmus, will be applied to exclude other dizziness-inducing disorders.
The eligible participants will receive 12 sessions of CMT plus UC or only UC over 6 weeks.
CMT includes mandatory and discretionary techniques, whereas UC includes electrotherapy, thermotherapy, and patient education.
The efficacy will be evaluated primarily as Dizziness Handicap Inventory score.
The severity and frequency of dizziness, the level of neck pain or stiffness, and the cervical range of motion will also be evaluated.
Safety will be assessed by adverse events.
The data will be statistically analyzed at p < 0.05 .
