Summary

Fifty patients of both genders with age ranged from 30 - 50 years, suffering from neck dysfunction post neck dissection surgeries participated in this study. The participants were randomly selected from the National Cancer Institute, Cairo, Egypt. They were randomly assigned into two equal groups, 25 patients each (study group and control group).

Group A :( Study Group) In this group of the study, received cranio-cervical flexion training utilizing stabilizer pressure biofeedback in addition to traditional physical therapy program (ROM exercises, stretching and strengthening exercises), 3 times a week for 6 weeks.

DEVICE

Stabilizer pressure biofeedback plus traditional physical therapy

Stabilizer pressure biofeedback Strength Training Protocol for Deep Cervical Flexors Using Pressure Biofeedback Unit (PBU): * The air bag of the pressure biofeedback unit was placed under the occiput. Participants instructed to perform a gentle nodding movement in order to reach five target pressure levels between 22 and 30 mmHg. * Each pressure level held for 10 seconds. The training program will consist of: * 3 sets per session. * 10 repetitions in each set. * A rest period of two minutes was given between each set to prevent muscle fatigue . * Participants received stabilizer pressure biofeedback training 3 sessions per week for 6 weeks. Traditional physical therapy program The traditional physical therapy program included range of motion exercises, stretching exercises, and strengthening exercises, three times a week for six weeks
