What you need to know
Neck and upper back pain is often associated with changes in the work environment, such as the recent move to home offices, poor ergonomics, changes in work/life balance, and physical activity levels. This Health Action Plan offers tools to help mitigate the nagging aches and pains in your upper back and neck.
How the Plan Works
This 30-day program helps you manage and prevent neck and upper back pain through education and exercise.
