There is evidence to support the use of manipulative physiotherapy (joint mobilisation or manipulation) for the short-term management of neck pain and some types of headaches.
Evidence also supports the use of acupuncture, TENS, pulsed electromagnetic therapy, biofeedback and exercise rehabilitation. At present, neck collars, ultrasound, laser and traction cannot be recommended for the treatment of neck pain as there is not enough evidence to support these interventions.
