Primary | Muscle Strength | The cervical and scapular muscle strength was meausured with a Hand Held dynamometer (Lafayette Manual Muscle Test System™/ Model 01163-Lafayette Instrument Company, Lafayette, Indiana). Measurements were repeated three times, the average value was recorded. | Baseline | |

Primary | Muscle Endurance | The muscular endurance of the deep cervical flexors was evaluated with the cranio-cervical flexion test. For general cervical flexor muscles, 0.5 kg weight was placed on the cervical region of the participant. The participant was asked to perform 10° cervical flexion while in cervical retraction, and the time he/she maintained this position was recorded. And for the trapezius and serratus anterior muscles, Scapular muscular endurance test was used. | Baseline | |

Secondary | General Health | The QoL was assessed with the Short Form-36 QoL questionnaire administered under the supervision of the investigator. The SF-36 measures eight scales: physical functioning (PF), role physical (RP), bodily pain (BP), general health (GH), vitality (VT), social functioning (SF), role emotional (RE), and mental health (MH). A score of zero indicates poor health, and a score of 100 indicates good health. | Baseline | |
