First seen Nov 01, 2025 · Last updated Apr 30, 2026 · Updated 28 times

Summary

This study looks at how doing a second task—like counting or carrying something—changes walking patterns in people with long-term neck pain compared to healthy adults. Researchers will use a wearable sensor to measure step variability and symmetry. The goal is to understand how neck pain affects movement control, not to test a treatment. 42 adults aged 18-60 will take part.
