Pain intensity during rest, activity, and at night was evaluated with Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) and functional assessment was done by using Neck Disability Index at the beginning and at the end of 4 weeks.', 'detailedDescription': 'Objectives: Smartphones or tablets have made an important place in our lives. However long-term use of technological tools causes postural disorders and neck pain called "text neck".

First group received a home exercise program treatment for 4 weeks. Second group received life modification suggestions additional to home exercise treatment program.
