简要总结
Exercise has been found to be effective in alleviating back and neck pain. Two exercise methods which are available in the community in a group format are Yoga and Pilates. While there is some research on the efficacy of these exercise methods for low back pain, there is no definitive research on the use of Yoga or Pilates group exercise for individuals with chronic cervical pain.This study investigated the effect of group Yoga and Pilates exercise compared to a wait-listed control group on impairments and function related to neck pain for individuals with chronic cervical pain.
详细描述
Individuals reporting chronic mild to moderate neck pain for more than 3 months were assigned to a pilates, yoga or wait-listed control group. The exercise group consisted of 12 one hour small group sessions instructed by experienced Physical Therapists with additional yoga or pilates training. Participants were evaluated at baseline, 6 weeks, and 12 weeks. Exercise participants also completed a follow up 6 weeks after completion.
