N2  - Background: Soft tissues of the neck are a common cause of cervicogenic headache (CGH).The purpose of this study: To compare between the effect of positional release technique (PRT) and post isometric relaxation (PIR) technique in patients with CGH. Patients and method: Thirty patients of CGH have been taken in the study. They were selected from Kafer El sheikh general hospital.They were randomly assigned into 2 groups. Group A consisted of 15 patients with mean age 45.86±8.825 years; who had received PRT for upper trapezius ,sternocleidomastoid muscles and suboccipital muscle with hot pack, and group B consisted of 15 patients with mean age 43.66±8.39 years  underwent PIR for the same muscles with hot pack. Intervention was given for 9 sessions (3 sessions / week). Outcome measures taken were visual analogue scale (VAS), neck disability index (NDI) and cervical range of motion (ROM) before treatment and post the 9{u036D} {u036A} session
