Sleep smarter, hurt less: new study tests sleep hygiene for neck pain
NCT ID NCT07178496
First seen Jun 26, 2026 · Last updated Jun 26, 2026
Summary
This study looks at whether teaching people with chronic neck pain better sleep habits, along with standard physiotherapy exercises, can improve their sleep quality and reduce disability. 120 adults aged 20-55 with poor sleep and neck pain lasting over 3 months will be split into two groups: one gets physio alone, the other gets physio plus sleep hygiene education. The goal is to see if the combined approach leads to better sleep, less pain, and less fatigue.

Sleep hygiene education and physiotherapy exercises
What this could lead to
If it works, this could offer a simple, non-drug way to improve sleep and reduce disability in people with chronic neck pain.
What could go wrong
This is a small, early-stage study with no blinding, so results may be influenced by placebo effects. The intervention is behavioral, so benefits may vary widely.
