Brief Summary:
The purpose of the study is to compare between the efficacy of high intensity LASER therapy and scapular stabilization exercises on ventilatory functions in forward head posture patients
Detailed Description:
Neck pain is a common complaint in the population with a considerable impact on individuals and their families communities health-care systems and businesses The estimated 1-year incidence of neck pain ranges between 104 and 213 and the overall prevalence of neck pain in general population can be as high as 868
The photothermic and the photochemical effects of high intensity LASER therapy may increase blood flow and stimulate collagen production within tendons in addition high intensity LASER therapy may increase vascular permeability and has an anti-inflammatory effect thus removing the pain stimulus
Scapular stabilization exercise is used as an effective way to recover the imbalance in posture and the muscles It is also effective in increasing muscle activation in the serratus anterior and lower trapezius through decreasing the compensatory movement which is caused by the forward head posture and in decreasing muscle activation on the upper trapezius Furthermore it brings about a spinal curve change and upper crossed syndrome improvement
Therefore this study will compare the difference between the effect of high intensity laser therapy and scapular stabilization as a modality of treatment on ventilatory function in forward head posture patients
