For most of the alternative health treatment modalities, the treatment of neck pain or problem was reported for both 2002 and 2007. For one modality--healing rituals/sacraments--treatment of neck pain or problem (and 73 other conditions) was reported in 2002 only. For two of the modalities--hypnosis and movement techniques--treatment of neck pain or problem (and 115 other conditions) was included in 2007 only. (See HYPYR and MOVALEXYR for more information.) Analysts interested in the treatment of neck pain or problem by alternative therapies other than healing rituals/sacraments should see PRARITYR for the full list of alternative medicine treatments, as well as for a summary of healing ritual-related questions and definitions.

Comparability

PRATNECPAIN is only available for 2002. Survey participants were asked about their use of most of the alternative health modalities to treat neck pain or problem in 2007, but they were not asked about using healing rituals/sacraments to neck pain or problem or most other specific health conditions in 2007.
