NCT ID NCT07562737
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study tests whether taking short neck-stretching breaks (2, 5, or 7 minutes) during the workday can reduce chronic neck pain in office workers who sit for at least 6 hours daily. Over 12 weeks, researchers will measure pain, disability, balance, and hand dexterity to find the most effective break length. The goal is to offer a simple, no-cost way to improve comfort and productivity at work.
