McKenzie Retraction and Bruegger's Exercises Effects on Forward Head Posture

Forward Head Posture Clinical Trial

Official title:
Comparative Effects of McKenzie Retraction and Bruegger's Exercises on Forward Head Posture Among Young Adults

Clinical Trial Summary

The aim of the study is to compare effects of McKenzie Retraction exercises and Bruegger's exercise on neck pain, ROM, craniovertebral angle and functional performance on forward head posture among young adults.

Clinical Trial Description

There are many advantages of technology such as improving work productivity and efficacy; however, using technology for an extended period of time can place a substantial amount of load on the neck musculature leading to musculoskeletal disorder. The most related cause of neck pain is muscle weakness leading to forward head posture due to static abnormal posture used while using electronic devices. The aim of the study is to compare effects of McKenzie Retraction exercises and Bruegger's exercise on neck pain, ROM, craniovertebral angle and functional performance on forward head posture among young adults. A randomized clinical trial will be conducted at Sadiq Hospital, Sargodha. Non-probability convenience sampling will be used, and 36 subjects, age 15-30 years will be randomly allocated into two groups by lottery method after meeting the inclusion criteria. Both groups will receive hot pack for 10-15 minutes, as common treatment. Group A will be treated with McKenzie Retraction Exercises and Group B will be treated with Bruegger's Exercise.5 sessions per week and total20sessions for 4 weeks. The outcome measures will be conducted through NPRS, NDI, photogrammetry and goniometry before and after 4 weeks. Data will be analyzed using SPSS software version 26. ;
