简要总结

To compare the effects of targeted cervical spine strengthening exercises and Kendall exercise in patients with forward head posture

详细描述

Studies have evaluated the effect of Kendall's exercises and found it effective for recovery. Studies have also concluded that targeted strengthening of flexors reverse the symptoms. The purpose of this study will elaborate either there is a difference in time taken to achieve normal head alignment between a targeted muscle that is prone to weakness or a technique that involves strengthening of weakened muscle plus stretching of shortened muscles. As there is a vast variety of correcting exercise program in the literature, the decision to choose the best option may be challenging. This study may help physiotherapists to apply treatment that is directly directing the main culprit.

结局指标

主要结局

Change in NPRS

时间窗: 8th week

Pain intensity will be assessed by numeric pain rating scale NPRS. The 11-point NPRS (intervals from 0-10) is used to quantify pain intensity; 0 represents no pain, and 10 represent the worst possible agony. The NPRS is a valid and reliable instrument for older persons. Participants will be asked to select the number that most accurately describes their level of pain. At the baseline assessment, following each exercise session during the 8-week intervention, and finally at the end of the intervention Programmed, the NPRS scores will be recorded Changes from Basline to 8th week

次要结局

  • Range of motion(8th week)
