Brief Summary

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

Due to the increased prevalence of neck pain in studied adolescents and young adults, this intervention is carried out, which mainly seeks to compare and verify the effectiveness of therapeutic exercise with education, compared to education alone.

It is also necessary to mention the high levels of stress levels reported in students, which can affect the increase in pain and the perception of these at times when stress increases. The intervention has been decreed in the weeks before and during the exam period at the University of Valencia, to see if the neck pain experienced by students at similar stages of their academic life is prevented or reduced.

It is decided to use education above all to give the participants a tool that allows the participants to find out what happens and why it happens when the participants suffer from neck pain, as well as an explanation of the pathology and the risk factors and how to avoid -the bear. In addition, knowledge about the condition in question can lead to a reconceptualization of pain, changing the approach and exposing a different approach, when treating the pathology.

It must be said that in the structure and layout of the informative document, the investigators think of an instrument that can serve the participants for the future.

Another reason for carrying out the study is the few tests on neck pain carried out with new technologies. The use of videos, therefore, seeks to facilitate access to the information provided, being a useful and practical tool for students, familiar with the use of new technologies.

In addition, the training is intended to be as didactic as possible, the chosen exercises are carefully explained and the fact that they are found in videos and not in a practical class, favors access to the content in these, for that the participants use the videos at their disposal. Finally, treating neck pain with training and education and taking into account the stress of students, brings to conventional treatment an interesting perspective of coping, focused on the biopsychosocial field.

Study Groups

Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.

Exercise

Exercising through educational videos for eight weeks. In addition, they will receive educational information about neck pain and the importance of exercise in this case, at the beginning of the study.

Group Type EXPERIMENTAL

Exercise to strengthen neck area.

Intervention Type OTHER

An exercise protocol will be carried out through educational videos. There will be a total of four videos which will pose exercises for two weeks each. These exercises will be done twice a week. A reminder will be sent by email on the days that they must be carried out.

Information

Intervention Type OTHER

Information will be provided on neck pain and how exercise is able to help prevent it.

Control
