For workers with persistent neck and shoulder pain , evidence supports mixed supervised and unsupervised high-intensity strength training or advice alone ( grade s I-III NAD ) .
A multimodal approach including manual therapy , self-management advice , and exercise is an effective treatment strategy for both recent-onset and persistent neck pain
OBJECTIVE The objective was to develop a clinical practice guideline on the management of neck pain-associated disorders ( NADs ) and whiplash-associated disorders ( WADs ) .
This guideline replaces 2 prior chiropractic guidelines on NADs and WADs .
