Neck pain and disability of neck and shoulder muscles fatigue will be measured at first and 6 weeks after the intervention. Primary outcome measures are chronic neck pain and Primary outcome method of measurement for neck pain is Visual Analog Scale Questionnaire and Muscles fatigue with Median Frequency of Electromyography and Disability Index method of measurement for disability is Neck Pain Disability Index Questionnaire
