First seen Jun 24, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This study tests whether adding mindfulness training to supervised rehabilitation exercises helps office workers with chronic neck pain more than exercises alone. Forty-eight participants will be randomly assigned to either an 8-week program of mindfulness plus exercise or exercise only. The goal is to see if the combined approach reduces pain intensity and improves quality of life.

Active substance
mindfulness training plus supervised rehabilitation exercises
What this could lead to
If it works, this could point toward a simple, drug-free way to better manage chronic neck pain in office workers.
What could go wrong
This is a small, early-stage trial with only 48 participants, so results may not apply to everyone. The added benefit of mindfulness over exercise alone may be small or absent.
