Summary
This study looks at how common neck and low back pain is among full-time staff at the University of the West Indies, Mona. It also tests whether an eight-week spine-specific exercise program reduces discomfort better than a general exercise program. About 200 staff members will take part, and those with pain will be randomly assigned to one of the two exercise groups.

If the spine-specific exercises prove more effective, this could point toward a simple, low-cost way to reduce neck and back pain in office workers.
What could go wrong
