Summary

Exercise training that is one of the effective treatment methods for cervical pain, is crucial in developing mobility and stability. Exercise training significantly reduces cervical pain as it advances postural alignment and neuromuscular coordination. In many single group studies on cervical pain in violin performers, it has been reported that the stabilization exercises have favorable consequences on pain relief and postural correction. But, there are no studies comparing ney and violin performers and analyzing the effectiveness of exercise training on non-specific cervical pain. The aim of this study is to search the effects of selected exercise training on pain, disability, range of motion, flexibility, strength and quality of life in ney and violin performers with non-specific cervical pain.

Selected Exercise

The violin and ney groups performed a structured exercise training program 3 times a week for a total of 8 weeks. Adherence to the exercise training program was checked using a follow-up schedule to ensure regular participation of the musicians. The 8-week exercise training program was given with same physiotherapist under the same conditions. The every exercise session consisted of warm-up (3-5 min), main exercise (30-35 min) and cooling periods (3-5 min). The main exercise period was included ROM (10 min), stretching (5-7 min), isometric (5-10 min) and stabilization exercises (5 min).
