Summary

The purpose of the study will be to investigate dynamic neuromuscular stabilization versus National American Academy of Sports Medicine (NASM) corrective exercises on pain, functional disability, cranio-vertebral angle, forward shoulder angle, and thoracic kyphosis in upper cross syndrome.

Conditions

  • Upper Crossed Syndrome
  • Upper Cross Syndrome
  • Upper Crossed Syndorme

Interventions

OTHER

NASM corrective exercises

It is corrective exercise protocol, which includes four phases, i.e. inhibit, lengthen, activate, and integrate stage

OTHER

Dynamic neuromuscular stabilization

Dynamic neuromuscular stabilization involves precise co-activation of the intrinsic muscles of the spine which forms the Integrated spinal stabilization system (ISSS) and includes cervical flexors and extensors, diaphragm, transverses abdominis, multifidus and pelvic floor.
