If you suffer from neck pain, Tai Chi, a Chinese martial art, may be a remedy for you to explore. A recent study by Harvard University, utilizing 114 participants, confirmed that Tai Chi yielded more improvement than simply doing nothing. One of the doctors involved with the study also added that Tai Chi was neither better nor worse than conventional neck exercises.
Key Takeaways:
- The study also explored whether Tai Chi was more and less effective than conventional neck exercises.
- Tai Chi, a Chinese martial art practise, may be as effective as exercises in relieving persistent neck pain, a new Harvard study has claimed.
- Researchers investigated the efficacy of group Tai Chi compared with group neck exercises and no treatment to improve neck pain, disability and quality of life in groups of people with nonspecific chronic neck pain.
