520			_aBackground: Mechanical neck pain (MNP) affects approximately two-thirds of people in middle age caused by placing abnormal stress and strain on the structures that constitute the vertebral column. Cervical traction is one of the treatment options in physical therapy treatment for patients with MNP. The traction type is an important variable that affects traction outcomes. Purpose: To investigate and compare between the effects of intermittent and continuous traction on pain, functional disability, and neck range of motion in patients with mechanical neck pain. Material and methods: Forty-five patients suffering from mechanical neck pain, Aged from 20 to 40 years. Patients were randomly assigned into three equal groups. Group (A) received a traditional physical therapy program in form of (IR and Exercise in form of a-stretching of the upper trapezius, sternocleidomastoid, Lavator scapula, and scaleni. b- Isometric neck exercise); Group (B) received intermittent traction in addition to a traditional physical therapy program; Group (C) received continuous traction in addition to the traditional physical therapy program. All Patients received 3 sessions per week for 4 weeks. They were evaluated pre and post treatment for pain severity by visual analogue scale, neck disability using neck disability index, and cervical range of motions by bubble inclinometer.Results: the pre-test evaluation showed that there was no significant difference (p>0.05) between all groups for all variables. the post-test evaluation showed that there were significant improvements (P-value >0.005) in all groups after intervention relieving pain and improve functional disability and increase range of motion in favor of group (B) than group (C).
