An isometric measurement protocol was performed at the beginning and at the end of a 3 week rehabilitation program that included physiotherapy, stretching, aerobic exercises and circuit training to improve arm, shoulder, and neck muscle strength. There was a significant increase in the ability to push forward and backward, which correlated with the lessening of neck pain and disability found at the end of the program (p < .05) Isometric strength measurement is a useful and practical method of objectively showing a functional improvement in response to rehabilitation.
