      <abstract>
        <p>Neck pain is one of the most common persisting symptoms. It increases with age in men and women and this appears to differ from low back pain. While in men its peaks between 40 years and 50 years of age and it is more common in women than men. The McKenzie method was introduced in Sweden in 1985 and came to be frequently used in the 1990. as a treatment modality for patients with mechanical problems of  the spine. Patient with neck pain may have reduced neck strength in flexion, extension and rotation. A convenience sample of 45 subject with neck pain randomly assigned into three groups like group A,B and C. The Group A subject will receive McKenzie treatment, Hot Pack and Postural Correction. The Group B subject will receive Strengthening Exercise, Hot Pack and Postural Correction. The Group C subjects Hot Pack and Postural Correction. All three groups were treated for four week. Instrumentation The age, weight and height of subjects in groups A, B and C were compared by using analysis of variance. There was no significant difference found in age, weight and height in all 3 groups (P&gt;0.05)  In the present study, there was significant difference between the McKenzie treatment, Isometric strengthening exercise and Hot Pack treatment for neck pain. The McKenzie protocol has been found to be more beneficial that the Isometric Strengthening exercise.</p>
