Summary

This study looks at how common neck and low back pain is among nursing students at the University of the West Indies, and tests whether a spine-specific exercise program works better than general exercises to ease that pain. About 400 students with pain will be randomly assigned to one of two exercise groups for 8 weeks. The goal is to see if the targeted exercises reduce discomfort and improve daily function.
