Summary
The goal of this clinical trial is to learn if a virtual reality (VR) intervention for people with chronic neck pain is feasible. The main questions it aims to answer are:
Is it possible to perform a future full-scale randomized controlled trial (RCT) with a remotely supervised VR-based intervention for people with chronic neck pain?
How do people with neck pain experience using VR in a home-based training intervention?
Researchers will investigate if aspects of a full-scale RCT is feasible. This includes how well the recruitment of participants worked, retention during the intervention, compliance to training program, adverse events, and experience using the VR during training. The study will also investigate initial indication of benefit of the VR intervention, such as effects on pain and function.
Participants will be randomly assigned to either a VR neck training group or an endurance training group. Both groups will perform a training program for 8 weeks with weekly follow ups with their physiotherapist via online meetings.
