Resumen
[ES] Objetivo: determinar, agrupar y valorar de forma crítica las evidencias científicas disponibles a cerca de la efectividad de las manipulaciones torácicas en pacientes con cervicalgia. Métodos: Tras efectuar una búsqueda bibliográfica en PEDro, Scopus y Pubmed, se incluyeron ensayos clínicos aleatorizados que incluyesen manipulaciones torácicas para el tratamiento de cervicalgias. Las variables principalmente estudiadas fueron el dolor, la discapacidad y la ROM. Y solo se escogieron artículos publicados en inglés y español entre 2012 y 2017. Resultados: Se obtuvieron un total de 197 resultados, de los cuales 8 fueron escogidos tras cumplir los criterios de inclusión propuestos. En todos ellos se aprecian mejoras tras aplicar distintas modalidades de manipulación torácica. Conclusión: La manipulación torácica tiene efectos positivos en pacientes con cervicalgia. Aunque, deben llevarse a cabo más estudios con un mayor número de participantes y a largo plazo.

Although, more studies should be conducted with a larger number of participants and in the long term.
