Objective: This study conducted to check the effectiveness of Neuromuscular Taping overNeck Pain in collaboration with Aimst University (Malaysia), University of Indonesia (Indonesia), NMTInstitute Italy & USA, Mekelle University Ethiopia (East Africa) & Insitute of Paramedical Sciences, Kannur,India,. Methodology: A qualitative research model in the form of a prospective type quasi experimentalstudy design was carried out in this study. The study was conducted in collaboration with AIMST UniversityMalaysia, University of Indonesia, NMT Institute Italy & USA, Insitute of Paramedical Sciences, Kannur,India, and Mekelle University Ethiopia. In this study all Academic and non-academic professionals thosewho diagnosed with neck pain for at least for 6 month duration, were included as the Population of thisstudy. Conveniently 800 participants were selected in collaboration with AIMST University Malaysia,University of Indonesia, NMT Institute Italy & USA, Mekelle University Ethiopia & Insitute of ParamedicalSciences, Kannur, India. Result: All Selected Participants with neck pain symptoms were assessed for Neckpain with neck pain index (NPI) respectively before and after intervention with neuromuscular taping. Theresults from most of the participants showed significantly improvement after intervention. Conclusion: Asthe pain factor is reducing, considering the fact NMT can be included as one among the modalities used forthe treatment of neck Pain. Introduction of new intervention such as neuromuscular taping in terms of neckpain management itself is a very challenging.
