Detailed Description
Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.
The primary objective of this study is to evaluate the effectiveness of a workplace cognitive and physical programme (Intervention) in reducing the frequency of pain involving the head and neck area. The Intervention consists of brief shoulder and neck exercises to be performed several times a day, a relaxation exercise and instructions of how to reduce parafunction and hyperfunction of the craniofacial and cervical muscles during the day.
