Practicing physical activity is a very necessary requirement for all segments of society. . Many individuals, regardless of environment, age and gender, are exposed to joint diseases and injuries and pain in the neck for many and varied reasons. Treatment methods and techniques vary according to the severity of the injury, as therapeutic exercises, including stretching exercises, specifically fixed ones, are one of the ways to eliminate cases of muscle and joint dysfunction. Many individuals, regardless of environment, age and gender, are exposed to joint diseases and injuries and pain in the neck for many and varied reasons. Treatment methods and techniques differ according to the severity of the injury, as therapeutic exercises, including stretching exercises, specifically fixed ones, are among the ways to eliminate cases of muscle and joint dysfunction.
The researchers aimed to:
- Preparing constant stretching exercises to improve the flexibility of the cervical vertebrae for people with neck spurs for ages (40-50) years.
- Identifying the effect of static stretching exercises in improving the flexibility of the cervical vertebrae for people with neck spurs for ages (40-50) years.
The researchers concluded:
- The constant stretching exercises prepared by the two researchers had great effectiveness in developing the range of motion of the cervical region
- The application of exercises to the injured did not leave any negative effects on them, but rather they got positive and improved effects
The researchers also recommend the following:
- The necessity of using constant stretching exercises prepared by the two researchers to prevent neck pain
- The necessity of educating trainers and specialists to pay attention to fixed lengthening exercises and to allocate part of the training unit to these exercises on an ongoing basis to reduce the incidence of injuries
- Conducting similar studies targeting other parts using static stretching exercises
- Conducting similar studies on other age groups.
