Study Description

Brief Summary

Using a smart phone while adopting a poor posture can cause various physical problems. The neck and shoulders are particularly vulnerable to pain due to smart phone use, with the muscles showing a high level of muscle fatigue, resulting in exhaustion and pain, Therefore, determining the durable time to use the smart phone will protect us from abnormal posture and protect our muscle and ligaments.

Furthermore avoid the incorrect position of use smartphone position.
