Could an imbalance in the activity of the upper trapezius muscles during work contribute to neck pain?

Introduction: Activity of the upper trapezius muscle during work has been associated with neck pain. However, studies on the possible influence of bilateral asymmetric activation of the upper trapezius muscle on neck pain are scarce. The aim of this study was to investigate the relationship between [for full text, please go to the a.m. URL]
