| Abstract |
This article summarizes the findings of a study on the effectiveness of small amounts of daily exercise (2-12 min) for relieving neck/shoulder pain in healthy adults during work on computers. It is concluded that training of just two minutes per day can already bring significant relief in musculoskeletal pain. |
