Comparison of Trunk Extensor Endurance Training Versus Scapular Mobilization in Patient With Thoracic Kyphosis.

Overview

To compare the effect of Trunk extensor endurance training and scapular mobilization on thoracic pain in patient with thoracic kyphosis. To compare the effect of Trunk extensor endurance training and scapular mobilization on kyphotic angle in patient with thoracic kyphosis To compare the effect of Trunk extensor endurance training and scapular mobilization on shoulder ROM in patient with thoracic kyphosis

Interventions

  • Other Trunk Extensor Endurance training & Scapular mobilization
    Trunk Extensor Endurance Training Level 1:Prone shoulder extension or prone shoulder raises Level 2: Prone back extension Level 3: Prone Ys or Y raises Level 4:Super man pose Level 5:Super man or prone cobra (The given position should be hold for 10 seconds and performs 25 repetitions with 3 sec rests in between the efforts) Scapular Mobilization: Intervention program includes, supero-inferior, medio-lateral along with circumduction movements). 3 sets of 10-15 repetitions of each of the supe
