Among laboratory technicians , the prevalence of neck and shoulder pain is widespread possibly due to typical daily work tasks such as pipetting , preparing vial samples for analysis , and data processing on a computer including mouse work - all tasks that require precision in motor control and may result in extended periods of time spent in static positions.In populations characterized by intense chronic musculoskeletal pain and diagnosed conditions in conjunction with psycho-physiological symptoms such as stress-related pain and soreness and other disabling conditions , multifactorial approaches applying a combination of individually tailored physical and cognitive strategies targeting the areas most needed , may be an effective solution to the physical and mental health challenges.The aim of this study is therefore to investigate the effect of an individually tailored biopsychosocial intervention strategy on musculoskeletal pain , stress and work disability in lab technicians with a history of musculoskeletal pain at a single worksite in Denmark .
