This study compares three exercise programs for people with long-lasting neck pain: whole-body stabilization exercises, targeted neck exercises, and standard physiotherapy. Forty-five adults aged 18 to 50 with at least 12 weeks of neck pain will participate. Researchers will meas…

This study tests a home-based program combining exercises and pain education for people with long-term neck pain. About 54 adults with chronic non-specific neck pain will participate. The goal is to see if this approach reduces pain and improves neck function without needing in-p…

This study tests whether adding a deep neck muscle exercise (semispinalis cervicis strengthening) to standard craniocervical flexion training can better reduce chronic neck pain and improve movement. 42 adults aged 18-35 with neck pain lasting over 3 months will be randomly assig…

This study tests whether a virtual reality-based exercise program can reduce pain and improve daily function in people with chronic neck pain. Thirty-two adults with neck pain lasting at least 6 months will do 45-minute VR sessions three times a week for 8 weeks. Researchers will…

This study tests whether a new virtual reality (VR) app can reliably measure neck movement and joint position sense in people with chronic neck pain. About 58 adults with and without neck pain will perform standard neck movements while being measured by both the VR app and a stan…

This study aims to understand if there is a connection between chronic neck pain and the thickness of a major jaw muscle. Researchers will use a simple, non-invasive ultrasound to measure the masseter muscle in 90 adults with and without neck pain. The goal is to gather knowledge…
