    In pain patients with functional disorder you can often find a disharmonie in the cervical spine. The results of the examination from 74 patients (47 female, 27 male) shows that: 1. 86.5% of the patients told about neck pain. Those patients with hard neck pain, you can find five or more dolent masticatory muscles. 2. 50% of the patients have on block in the cervical spine, 36.5% have between two and four blocks. 3. In patients with low neck pain you can find less blocks, than in patients with hard neck pain. If there is a block the part of the patients with more than five dolent muscles is significantly higher. 4. 64 patients who have a block shows at the same time 56.8% a functional disorder. So everybody can see that it is really necessary to work together in the diagnosis, therapy and treatment in patients with functional disorders.
