Summary

This study is a randomised control trial and 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

Conditions

  • Upper Cross Syndrome

Interventions

PROCEDURE

Group A

Treatment protocol given to the both groups will be carried out for 7 sessions for 2 weeks on alternative days. It will consist of a 10 minute hot pack. Neuromuscular reeducation for following muscles. Pectoralis major Upper trapezius Levator scapulae Strengthening exercises of: Rhomboids Lower \& middle trapezius Deep flexors Neuromuscular reeducation It will break adhesion result in loosen the scar tissue will increase the temperature and cause in increase of blood flow . Muscles contract when myosin pulls actin filaments together using energy from ATP shortening the muscle fiber and causing contraction. They relax when calcium is removed, allowing the filaments to slide apart muscle will return to its resting state. The continuously muscle contraction and relaxation help to loosen up and become more flexible . Strengthening exercises

PROCEDURE

Group B

Treatment protocol was given to both groups for 7 session sessions for 2 weeks on alternative days. It was comprises of HOT PACK for 10 minutes . Post facilitation stretch for following muscles. Pectoralis major Upper trapezius Levator scapulae Strengthening exercises of: Rhomboids Lower \& middle trapezius Deep flexors Post facilitation stretch : Post Facilitation Stretch is an isometric Contraction in which he participants were instructed to contract the muscles to the maximum voluntary capacity that involves first putting the target muscle through a high-intensity isometric contraction (roughly 75-100% of maximal effort) for 5-10 seconds, and then quickly and continuously passively stretching the same muscle for at least 10 seconds. Strengthening exercises
