The study was aimed to compare shoulder proprioception in chronic mechanical cervical pain to a matched normal group. This study include two groups, 40 subjects with mechanical chronic cervical pain and 40 healthy subjects representing the control group. The primary outcome measure was the shoulder proprioception test of both upper limbs during active repositioning and quantified with angular displacement error. Test was applied using an isokinetic dynamometer device at angle 30° for both shoulder internal and external rotation on both sides with an angular velocity 30°/sec.
