Background The lifetime prevalence of mechanical neck pain in the general population is estimated to be 45–54 percent, (Aker et al., 1996), with up to 30 percent of males and 50 percent of women reporting lifelong neck discomfort. (Saturno et al., 2003) In 2005, Saringovallis and Hollins calculated that between 13.4 percent and 22.2 percent of people experience neck pain at any given moment. Furthermore, according to reports, 14% of people with neck discomfort run the risk of developing chronic pain, which makes the condition very expensive in terms of lost productivity at work and medical expenses. Methods Study followed the PRISMA criteria for reporting systematic reviews of randomised controlled trials and utilised systematic review methodologies as specified in the Cochrane handbook of systematic reviews. Study included papers that were randomised controlled trials (RCTs) with randomization at the individual or cluster level to eliminate selection bias. Results Techniques like Muscle energy technique, trigger point therapy, Active release technique, Passive release technique & Thai massage. All articles described treatment of either the cervical spine, shoulder, or scapular muscles. Some studies focused on one technique while others employed a combination. HPPTUS technique, which is used for active MTrP treatment, is better than the traditional US technique. However, in studies, different approaches were used, and at the last followup week, they had equivalent & different therapeutic results.
