Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The aim of this study is to reduce pain, increase range of motion, increase the endurance of deep cervical flexors muscles, and increase quality of life with mobile application in the treatment of patients with chronic neck pain. Although many benefits of exercises have been proven, the effectiveness, follow-up and continuity of exercise will be investigated with mobile application tracking.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

One of the important factors in mechanical chronic neck pain is the decrease in the endurance of the deep cervical flexor muscles. As a result of this decrease, an increase to the activation of M. Scalenus Anterior and M. Sternocleidomastoid muscles is observed. It is known that patients avoid some movements due to pain, and as a result, loss of muscle strength and endurance in the neck, upper back, around the scapula and shoulder occurs. The loss in strength and endurance, combined with the severity of pain, may affect the stability of the upper extremity has been considered.

Patients with chronic neck pain may experience a number of problems due to the predisposition to accompany pain or some problems caused by neck pain. It is known that all these problems affect the quality of life of patients by limiting their daily living activities.

With the developing technology, mobile health applications have started to be used more and more in our lives. In addition to preventing disease, reducing risk factors, increasing physical activity and quality of life, mobile applications are used in many different areas such as diagnosis, treatment, feedback and monitoring.
