Outcomes

Primary Outcomes

Function

Time Frame: 1 week

Function is measured by neck disability index the total score is 50 as the score is higher the disability is higher

Scapular muscle strength

Time Frame: 1week

Scapular muscle strength is measured by hand held dynanometer

Pain intensity

Time Frame: 1week

Pain intensity is measured by neumeric pain rating scale the lowest value is 0 means no pain and the highest value is 10 means the worst pain

Scapular position

Time Frame: 1week

Scapular position is measured by lateral scapular slide test
