As a matter of fact, a study of office workers shows how a weekly session of one hour of strength training for neck and shoulder muscles reduced neck and right shoulder pain after 20 weeks compared to no training. They reported reduced work disability, too. (2) Think Manchester neck pain workers would like this?

A second report shows that integrated cervical, scapulothoracic stretching and strengthening help pain relief after treatment and at follow up as well as improved function in the short and current term for chronic neck pain. Neck pain patients were also content with their therapeutic exercise care. (3) You'll like ours, too!

Spinal manipulation and exercise outdo drugs for neck pain relief. All three were compared. At 12 weeks, 82% of spinal manipulation patients proclaimed at least 50% decreased pain; 69% of medication group did. The pain scores at all subsequent points were the same for spinal manipulation and exercise groups plus both reported more improved health and functioning, less disability and fewer adverse events than the medication group. (4) The home exercises aimed at simple, gentle self-mobilization exercise of the neck and shoulder joints, including neck retraction, extension, flexion, rotation, lateral bending motions, and scapular retraction with no resistance.
