Clinical Trial Description

Healthcare workers constitute a professional group that is physically and mentally burdened. Working in bad posture for long periods of time and being exposed to high occupational psychological stress both cause musculoskeletal pain and pose a high psychological risk. Stress-related risk factors such as standing for a long time at the workplace, insufficient rest times, and a working system in the form of shifts are common. Because time spent at work covers a large part of the day, it is inevitable that the work environment will have a significant impact on physical, social and psychological health. It is known that group exercises performed with colleagues in the company of a therapist at work are more effective in increasing vitality, improving pain and anxiety control, and increasing commitment to participation in exercise compared to exercise performed at home.Jakopsen et al. examined the effect of workplace-based exercises and home-based exercise in a randomized controlled study that included 200 female health workers working in 18 departments in three different hospitals. They observed that the group participants who exercised at work achieved more positive results in terms of muscle strength, musculoskeletal pain, and use of painkillers than the home-based exercise group.
