Summary

The etiology of cervical pain is multifactorial and studies based on the bio-psychosocial model also link chronic neck pain to psychological factors. Among them, kinesiophobia has been reported as an important determinant. Over time, the use of multidisciplinary interventions for chronic vertebral pain (instead of segmental treatments) has grown in order to improve disability, pain and proactive behaviors towards the problem manifested. To date, the evidence relating to the effects of multidisciplinary approaches is inconclusive and lacking. In light of these premises, it appears necessary to deepen the conduct of studies aimed at evaluating the efficacy of a multidisciplinary rehabilitation program that integrates cognitive-behavioral therapy based on kinesiophobia with specific exercises, in the treatment of chronic neck pain of working subjects.

Conditions

  • Neck Pain

Interventions

OTHER

multidisciplinary program

multimodal exercises to improve, through gradual exposure, cervical mobility, postural control and strengthening of the cervical muscles; stabilization techniques for the deep neck muscles; task-oriented exercises maintaining the activation of the deep spinal muscle. Under the supervision of a psychologist, the subjects will also be involved in cognitive-behavioral therapy aimed at modifying the fear of movement (kinesiophobia) and the maladaptive behavior of the disease. Ergonomic consultancy.
