AB - PURPOSE: This study examined the effects of stabilization exercises and stretching techniques on the pain, stress, and muscle properties in university students with neck pain.
METHODS: This study was conducted for four weeks to compare the pain, stress, and muscle characteristics when stretching techniques and stabilization exercises were applied separately and when the two were combined in 30 college students with neck pain.
RESULTS: The visual analog scale (VAS) and neck disability index (NDI) decreased significantly in the stretching group (StG), stabilization group (SbG), and complex group (CpG). A significant difference in the VAS was observed between the CpG and the StG. A significant difference in NDI was observed among the three groups. A significant difference in muscle tone in the upper trapezius between the CpG and SbG. The stiffness of the upper trapezius in the CpG and SbG was reduced significantly, and a significant difference in the stiffness of the upper trapezius was observed between CpG and SbG. The elasticity of the upper trapezius was significantly increased in the StG and CpG. A significant difference in suboccipital in the upper trapezius was noted between the CpG and SbG. The suboccipital of muscle tone was decreased significantly in the CpG and SbG. The three groups showed significantly reduced stiffness and elasticity of the suboccipital.
CONCLUSION: The complex group showed positive changes in pain, stress, and muscle properties. Therefore, college students with neck pain should be treated by applying stretching and stabilization exercises simultaneously.
