Active Neck Muscle Training in the Treatment of Chronic Neck Pain in Women
JAMA 289:2509-2516, Ylinen,J.,et al, 2003
See this aricle in Pubmed

Article Abstract
Both strength and endurance training for 12 months were effective methods for decreasing pain and disability in women with chronic, nonspecific neck pain. Stretching and fitness training are commonly advised for patients with chronic neck pain, but stretching and aerobic exercising alone proved to be a much less effective form of training than strength training.
