| dc.description.abstract | Background: The guideline for the treatment of neck pain recommends active therapy, such as exercise. The aim of this study was to investigate the association of exercise frequency and type with neck pain intensity in a sample of office workers. Methods: This longitudinal analysis is among a subset of our randomized controlled trial “Neck exercise for productivity” (NEXpro). Office workers from two Swiss organisations without severe neck problems were included. All office workers were asked to perform a 12-week exercise program in spring 2020 to reduce their neck pain. Exercise frequency was quantified by the number of exercises performed. Exercise type corresponded to the number of strengthening and non-strengthening exercises performed. Both were measured by an application on participants’ digital devices. Neck pain intensity was assessed before and after the intervention using the Numeric Rating Scale NRS 0-10, and the difference was calculated. A linear regression model was fitted to the data to estimate the association of exercise frequency and type with reduction in neck pain intensity. Results: Forty office workers aged 27.3 to 63.7 years (mean 44.9) participated in the study, 75% of whom were women. The mean neck pain intensity was NRS 2.8/10 before and NRS 1.8/10 after the intervention. Over 12 weeks, an average of 225 exercises were performed, of which 145.1 were strengthening and 80.6 were non-strengthening exercises. No statistically significant association was found with neck pain intensity for either exercise frequency (b=0.002, 95% CI from -0.003 to 0.007, p=0.38) or exercise type (strengthening: b=0.001, 95% CI from -0.007 to 0.009, p=0.75; non strengthening: b=0.012, 95% CI from - 0.001 to 0.026, p=0.07). Conclusion: Our results do not indicate that participants who exercised more frequently and performed strengthening exercises experienced a greater reduction in neck pain intensity. | de_CH |
