Action note: In: Summary: ABSTRACT: Background and Purpose: Postural neck pain, secondary to soft tissue adhesions and presence of myofascial trigger points in the bilateral upper trapezius, is one of the prevalent complaints among office employees. The emergence of manual therapy techniques, specifically the self-myofascial release using a grid foam roller, with the aim of treating myofascial restrictions for purposes of alleviating pain , removing adhesions, and increasing range of motion, are now being used by a number of physical therapists as treatment of choice. However, there are limited, if not, no study exists to support the use of such technique. This study sought to identify the immediate effects of grid foam roller as compared with the traditional myofascial release in decreasing postural neck pain among office employees. Methods: A quasi experimental design was used to determine the immediate effects of grid foam roller versus traditional myofascial release in decreasing postural neck pain. Thirty participants were selected by purposive sampling and were grouped into experimental ( grid foam roller) and control (traditional myofascial release).The outcome measures for this study were pain and range of motion, which were measured using pain numerical rating scale and a regular plastic goniometer for cervical range of motion in extension, bilateral lateral flexion, and bilateral rotation respectively. Data was recorded at pre and posttest, and was analyzed using paired t-test , Cohen's d, & independent t-test on SPSS version 21. Results and Conclusions: Results revealed that both groups have shown a significant decrease in the pain numerical rating scale both before and after treatment. There were also significant improvements on all cervical range of motion both before and after treatment using the grid foam roller. However, only the cervical range of motion of extension and lateral flexion in both before and after the treatment. Overall, no significant differences were evident between the experimental and control group in terms of pain numerical rating scale and all cervical range of motions.
