Exercise intervention
The participants will carry out a physiotherapeutic exercise intervention over a period of 6 weeks. The exercise intervention is stored in a smartphone app (PhysiApp) and consists of different neck and shoulder exercises. The investigators will provide the training material to the participants and they may keep it after the end of the study. Participants can choose which and how many exercises they would like to do. However, the investigators ask participants to exercise at least three times a week for 20 minutes each time (a total of one hour per week) and to document the training afterwards in the smartphone app. In the first, third and sixth week, the investigators train together with the participants via a virtual platform (e.g. video call via Microsoft Teams) so that the correct execution of the exercise can be checked and questions can be clarified.
