Abstract

Background — Musculoskeletal pain is one of the most common problem among office workers. The main reason is related to the long time spent sitting and the associated lack of physical activity. Musculoskeletal pain can affect not only their work-related performance, but also their personal performance and quality of life. Research has mainly focused on the effects of physical activity in managing musculoskeletal pain in office workers, while research is sparse pertaining to the possible role of mental imagery on reducing musculoskeletal pain in office workers. While mental imagery has only a minor effect on pain modulation in healthy individuals, its effect appears to be more pronounced in those with chronic pain. Aim — This commentary attempts to present beneficial mental imagery techniques that can be used solely or in combination with physical exercise in an office-based setting to improve musculoskeletal pain to enhance work performance and quality of life among office workers.
心理意象和体育锻炼对上班族肌肉骨骼疼痛和生活质量的影响
背景——肌肉骨骼疼痛是上班族最常见的问题之一。主要原因与久坐和缺乏体育活动有关。肌肉骨骼疼痛不仅会影响他们的工作表现,还会影响他们的个人表现和生活质量。研究主要集中在体育活动对管理办公室工作人员肌肉骨骼疼痛的影响上,而关于心理意象在减少办公室工作人员肌骨骼疼痛方面可能发挥的作用的研究很少。虽然心理意象对健康人的疼痛调节只有很小的影响,但对慢性疼痛患者的影响似乎更为明显。目的——本评论试图展示有益的心理意象技术,这些技术可以单独使用,也可以与办公室环境中的体育锻炼结合使用,以改善肌肉骨骼疼痛,从而提高办公室工作人员的工作表现和生活质量。
