Neck pain is common among occupations requiring static neck flexion. Therefore, this project develops and tests a neck support to alleviate occupational neck pain. The design supports workers’ heads during neck flexion to reduce neck muscle activity. Surface electromyography tests and workplace tests using a prototype yielded promising efficacy results. |
