Brief Summary:
The goal of this clinical trial is to investigate the effects of wearable postural feedback devices added to exercise approach on neck pain and proprioception in office workers with nonspecific chronic neck pain
H0 The effects of wearable postural feedback devices added to exercise and exercise approach on neck pain and proprioception are similar in office workers with nonspecific chronic neck pain
H1 The effects of wearable postural feedback devices added to exercise and exercise approach on neck pain and proprioception are different in office workers with nonspecific chronic neck pain
58 office workers aged 25-55 years with nonspecific chronic neck pain will be included and divided into 2 groups physiotherapy programs will be applied for 8 weeks 3 days a week All participants will be trained on office ergonomics and proper sitting posture at the beginning of the study Group 1 Exercise and Postural feedback Group 2 Exercise Sociodemographic information will be questioned pain neck proprioception craniovertebral angle neck muscle strength endurance and range of motion will be assessed Neck disability index physical activity level stress perception level fatigue level work performance and patient satisfaction will also be evaluated at baseline and 8 weeks

Detailed Description:
Treatment of work-related musculoskeletal disorders can be challenging due to multiple underlying risk factors like physical workload poor posture altered sensorimotor control biopsychosocial conditions When the information provided by the individuals own sensory system is insufficient the use of extrinsic feedback has been proposed as an option to reduce sensorimotor discomfort and thus improve movement control Due to the progress in miniaturization technology of the microelectromechanical system postural feedback devices have been developed
Recent studies have used different feedback methods to improve posture Studies have compared the effectiveness of different types of feedback active exercise and passive therapy However there is a need for studies examining the effects of adding postural feedback to different intervention strategies in the office environment
Small lightweight and easy to wear feedback devices can be expected to provide positive effects on neck pain and proprioception in addition to classical exercises by providing real-time feedback to the user during daily activities
