Brief Summary:
Chronic neck pain CNP is defined as pain or intense discomfort in the lateral or back of the neck with an establishment andor persistence period of over 12 weeks
The socio-economic system is seriously affected by chronic neck pain due to direct and indirect costs on the health system Physical exercise is used to improve physical function and reduce the symptoms of pain and stiffness due to chronic neck pain
It has been demonstrated that therapeutic exercise in water is effective to improve functional capacity and symptoms in patients with chronic neck pain In adition health education and posture is an important component of the overall treatment of neck pain
Interventions that integrate physical activity adapted swimming and health education as an intervention for chronic neck pain sufferers have not been found Furthermore the aim of this study is to analyse the effect of a physiothperapy treatment that combine adapted swimming therapeutic exercise and health education in patients with chronic neck pain
Hypothesis the present intervention will be an effective tool to treat patients suffering chronic neck pain
Methods chronic neck pain patients from a community-based centre will be recruite participate in this prospective study
Intervention 60 min session 30 min of land exercise dedicated to improve mobility motor control resistance and strengthening of the neck muscles 30 min of adapted swimming with aerobic exercise keeping neutral neck position by using a snorkel Health education will be provided by the physiotherapist before and during the sessions using a decalogue on chronic neck pain and constant repetition of brief advice
Study outcomes disability Neck Disability Index physical and mental health state and quality of life of patients SF-12 and EuroQoL 5D respectively
Differences between baseline data and that at the 8-week follow-up were calculated for all outcome variables
Statistical Analysis descriptive statistics Analysis of the normal distribution of the variables using the KS-test Comparison of variables pre - post intervencición T-Student for parametric variables and Wilcoxon test for non parametric variables
Data will be analysed descriptively and for statistical significance using Statistical Package for the Social Sciences SPSS version 170 for Windows Illinois USA
