N2  - Background: Mechanical Neck Dysfunction (MND) affects about two thirds of people in middle age with common cause of bad posture in people who spent much of their working day at a desk with a bent-forward posture. Kinesio taping (KT) is a new therapeutic modality to correct and treat many musculoskeletal disorders. It is based on natural healing process and it is beneficial in reducing pain and restoring function. Phonophoresis (PH) had wide utility in physical therapy and sports medicine for the treatment of many musculoskeletal disorders. The purpose: of this study was to compare the efficacy of kinesio taping with phonphoresis on neck pain intensity, cervical ROM and neck disability in patients with MND. Methods: Pain intensity, cervical ROM and neck function disability were measured pre and post treatment by Visual Analogue Scale (VAS), OB Goniometer and Neck Disability Index (NDI) respectively
