详细描述
The purpose of this study is to determine the "Effects of Neuromuscular Reeducation Versus Post Facilitation Stretch Technique for Upper Cross Syndrome among IT professionals
Investigator will make 2 groups control and treatment group . investigator will give NMR technique to treatment group and PFS technique to control group in patients with upper cross syndrome.
first investigator will take base line readings of cervical ROM by using goniometer , NPRS AND neck diasbilty index.
after 2 weeks of treatment again investigator will take same readings and compare both readings.
with techniques investigator will also perform strengthning excercise of weal muscles for both groups

研究组 & 干预措施
Group A
On group A hot pack 10 min on cervical area investigator will perform NEUROMUSCULAR REEDUCATION TECHNIQUE: investigator will perform this technique on tight muscles which are:
- levator scapulae
- upper trapezius
- pectoralis major
- strengthening exercises
干预措施: Group A (Procedure)
Group B
On group B hot pack for 10 min on cervical area investigator will perform POST FACILITATION STRETCH TECHNIQUE on tight muscles same as group A
- levator scapulae
- upper trapezius
- pectoralis major
- strengthening exercises
干预措施: Group B (Procedure)
结局指标
主要结局
Upper cross syndrome pain
时间窗: baseline and after 2 weeks
Assessed using the Numeric Pain Rating Scale (NPRS). Patient is asked to rate the intensity of pain in numbers ranging from 0 to 10. This self-assessment tool uses an 11 point numeric scale ranging from 0 (no pain ) to 10 (worst pain)
Posture and Muscle Balance
时间窗: baseline and after 2 weeks
Assessed using the Neck disability index (NDI) It is a self- rating questionnaire includes ten items . Each item in the neck disability index has six different options or scores indicating the progressive levels of pain or activity of daily life limitations. Item are scored from 0 to 5 where 0 indicates no pain or limitation and 5 indicates maximum possible pain and limitation. Investigator use Janda approach to check the muscles tightness and weaknesss For tight muscles investigator use Muscle length test For weak muscles investigator use Muscle strength test
Cervical range of motion
时间窗: baseline and after 2 weeks
Flexion, extension, lateral flexion, and rotation measured using a goniometer
