Effect of sling exercise therapy on surface electromyography and muscle thickness of superficial cervical muscle groups in female patients with chronic neck pain.

Sling exercise therapy (SET) has been demonstrated to relieve the symptoms of chronic neck pain, whereas it is controversial whether this benefit is correlated to altered neck muscle structure and associated neuromuscular control in the patients.
