Summary

Upper crossed syndrome (UCS) is a condition threatening the physical health, anxiety level and quality of life of university students. Despite biomechanical and neurological approaches are available, evidence on their practicality and effectiveness remained scarce among university students. This randomized controlled trial aimed to determine the effectiveness of Baduanjin and Proprioceptive neuromuscular facilitation (PNF) on symptoms of UCS in university students in Henan Province, China. A total of 90 university students with crossed syndrome will be recruited and randomised into intervention (Baduanjin and PNF) and control groups. The intervention groups will undergo a structured exercise therapy or PNF for 12 weeks. The primary outcomes are improvement on neck range of motion and static posture while secondary outcomes are perceived Quality of Life (QoL) and level of anxiety.
