VDT 직업 종사자의 목 통증, 목뼈 운동범위, 누름통증, 목뼈 굽힘-이완 비율에 PNF 프로그램이 미치는 영향: 증례보고 = Effects of PNF Program on Neck Pain, Cervical Range of Motion, Pressure Pain, and Cervical Flexion-Relaxation Ratio in VDT Worker: a Case Study

다국어 초록 (Multilingual Abstract)

Purpose: This study aimed to examine the effects of a proprioceptive neuromuscular facilitation (PNF) program on neck pain, cervical range of motion, pressure pain, and the cervical flexion-relaxation ratio in a visual display terminal (VDT) worker.
Methods: We recruited a 33-year-old VDT worker diagnosed with chronic VDT syndrome. The subject was treated using a PNF program for 20 minutes a day, three times a week for six weeks. All evaluations were performed every two weeks on the first test day.
Results: The PNF program resulted in a significant improvement in the subject’s neck pain, cervical range of motion, pressure pain, and the cervical flexion-relaxation ratio after six weeks, in comparison to the subject’s condition before treatment.
Conclusion: The PNF program can be used effectively to improve neck pain, cervical range of motion, pressure pain, and the cervical flexion-relaxation ratio in visual display terminal (VDT) workers.
