Early Results Using Khan Kinetic Treatment
Pending Publication
Abstract
Objective: Demonstrate initial results using Khan Kinetic Treatment [KKT™] as a chronic neck pain treatment option.
Methods: A self-reported functional assessment, neck pain questionnaire and pain medication dose were used as outcome measures for matched subjects randomly split into two groups [“treatment” and “control”]. The “treatment” group underwent a treatment period consisting of several individual KKT™ treatments over a few weeks period while the “control” group continued conventional treatment. A paired t-test analyzed the functional assessment scores and a two group by two neck pain score [neutral or positive] chi-squared test was used for the neck pain questionnaires. Pain medication dose analysis consisted of a two group by two pain medication dose outcome [same or reduced] chi-squared test.
Results and Conclusion: Compared to a control group, the treatment group lowered both their self-recorded neck pain scores [P=0.012] and pain medication dose [P=0.048]. Early results show that KKT™ is an effective treatment for chronic neck pain and contributes to the reduction of pain relieving medication.
