Dolegliwości odcinka szyjnego kręgosłupa stanowią poważny problem w populacji osób pracujących. Są od wielu lat niezmiennie jedną z głównych przyczyn absencji chorobowej Polaków, generując ogrom kosztów związanych z rosnącymi wydatkami na opiekę zdrowotną i niezdolność do pracy. W artykule przedstawiono analizę piśmiennictwa dotyczącego skuteczności ćwiczeń ukierunkowanych na profilaktykę oraz leczenie dolegliwości odcinka szyjnego kręgosłupa. Mając na uwadze również praktyczny aspekt przygotowano zestawy ćwiczeń fizycznych dla osób uskarżających się na tego typu dolegliwości.

Neck pains and ailments are a common and a serious problem among workers. They are the most frequently indicated health problems in the adult population, constituting a significant economic problem, generating costs related to increasing expenses on health care, inability to work and absence from work. The article presents an analysis of the selected literature on the effectiveness of exercises aimed at prevention and treatment of neck pain. Having a great regard to the practical aspect we have prepared some examples of physical exercises for people who complain of this problem.

Purpose: The aim of this paper was to evaluate the effects of breathing retraining with chest wall mobilization on the onset of accessory breathing muscle recruitment and respiratory reserve in individuals with chronic neck pain. Methods: Thirty-two participants with non-specific chronic neck pain were randomly assigned into intervention and control groups. The intervention group received 30 minutes of breathing retraining with chest wall mobilization and the control group was assigned to rest for 30 minutes. Electromyography (EMG) of upper trapezius (UT), scalene (SC), and sternocleidomastoid (SCM) muscles were recorded during respiratory excursions by cycling for 12 minutes. Measurement of maximum voluntary ventilation (MVV), chest expansion, and pain intensity were taken during normal breathing. The immediate effects within each group and between two groups were analyzed. Results: Significant improvement in respiratory reserve was observed in the intervention group compared to control group through prolonged EMG onset of accessory breathing muscles. Moreover, increase of MVV, chest expansion and decrease in pain intensity were observed. Conclusions: This research suggests that breathing patterns and chest expansion should be considered within the physical assessment of breathing retraining, and that chest wall mobilization offers clinically important improvements in patients with chronic neck pain.

W niniejszym opracowaniu opisano mechanizm powstawania dolegliwości bólowych kręgosłupa występujących wśród tancerzy zawodowych uprawiających trzy różne style taneczne. Przeanalizowano dane ankietowe zebrane od 71 tancerzy zawodowych: 29 tancerzy klasycznych, 14 tancerzy współczesnych oraz 28 tancerzy folklorystycznych. Z grupy liczącej 71 osób, aż 65 osób (91,6%) zgłosiło bóle kręgosłupa w różnych jego częściach i powiązało je z uprawianiem swojego zawodu. Tylko 6 osób (8,5%) nigdy nie miało dolegliwości bólowych w tym obszarze aparatu ruchowego.

This study undertakes to explain the mechanism of back pain in professional dancers specialising in three styles of dance. In order to determine the topography of back pain data collected from 71 professional dancers were analysed: 29 classical dancers, 14 modern dancers and 28 folk dancers.. In the group of 71 participants as many as 65 (91.6%) reported back pain in various parts of the spine and linked it to their profession. Only 6 participants (8.5%) never experienced pain in this area.

The aims of this study were to investigate the prevalence of neck pain among computer workers at Hail University, Saudi Arabia and to compare the cervical range of motion (ROM) of female computer workers suffering from neck pain to the cervical ROM of healthy female computer workers. One hundred and seventy-six female volunteers between 20 and 46 years of age were investigated. Fifty-six of these volunteers were staff members, 22 were administrators and 98 were students. The Cervical Range of Motion (CROM) instrument was used to measure the ROM of the cervical spine. A questionnaire was used to assess participants for the presence of neck pain. The data were analyzed using the Statistical Package for Social Sciences (SPSS) software, and the level of significant was set at p < .05 for all statistical tests. There was a high prevalence of neck pain (75%) among computer workers at Hail University, particularly among students. There were significant differences in cervical lateral flexion, rotation to the right side and protraction range between the pain and pain-free groups. Our results demonstrated that cervical ROM measurements, particularly cervical lateral flexion, rotation and protraction, could be useful for predicting changes in head and neck posture after long-term computer work.
