Neck pain is a common medical condition among office workers all over the world. The purpose of this study was to see if physical exercise, such as basic body awareness, neck-specific training exercises, and ergonomic modifications, could help reduce pain, disability, and job stress while also improving quality of life among office workers. Participants will be assigned at random to either an experimental (exercise therapy and ergonomic modification) or a control group (ergonomic modification).
