简要总结
This randomized controlled trial will compare the effectiveness of Kaltenborn mobilization and Mulligan mobilization in individuals with Forward Head Posture.
The study will compare their effects in neck pain, craniovertebral angle, cervical range of motion, cervical proprioception, and deep neck flexor endurance after a two-week treatment program.
详细描述
Participants aged 18-40 years will be recruited and randomly allocated into two groups of through purposive sampling. Group A will receive Kaltenborn mobilization, progressing from Grades I-II to Grade III, while Group B will receive Mulligan SNAGs with gradually increased repetitions and overpressure. Both groups will also receive conventional treatment three times weekly for two weeks, completing six sessions with progression according to symptoms and tolerance.

时间窗: Baseline and after 2 weeks of treatment.
Numeric Pain Rating Scale (NPRS) will be used to measure Pain, 0 means no pain and 10 means worst pain ever.
Cervical Range of Motion
时间窗: Baseline and after 2 weeks of treatment
A bubble inclinometer will be used to measure cervical range of motion.
CranioVertebral Angle
时间窗: baseline and after 2 weeks of treatment.
Kinovea software will be used to measure Craniovertebral Angle.
Cervical Joint Proprioception
时间窗: Baseline and after 2 weeks of treatment
Cervical Joint Proprioception will be measured via Joint position error test.
Deep Neck Flexor Muscle Endurance
时间窗: Baseline and after 2 weeks of treatment
