Обзор

The aim of this research is to compare the effect of Brugger relief exercise versus Kinesio taping at craniovertebral angle on forward head posture. Randomized controlled trials done at we care physical therapy clinic Islamabad. The sample size was 28. The subjects were divided in two groups, 14 subjects in Kinesio taping group and 14 in Brugger relief exercise group. Study duration was of 6 months. Sampling technique applied was non probability purposive sampling technique. Only 20-40 years people with forward head posture having craniovertebral angle less than 50° degrees were included. Tools used in the study is protractor app. Data will be analyzed through SPSS 21

Подробное описание

Forward head posture (FHP) is a common condition characterized by abnormal cervical spine, leading to non-specific neck pain (NNP). FHP affects millions of people worldwide, causing pain, reduced productivity and quality of life. Current treatments for NNP associated with FHP include exercise programs and Kinesio taping, but there is limited evidence comparing their effectiveness.

The Brugger relief exercises (BRE) consist of a set of exercises designed to target the cervical spine and adjacent muscles with the goal of enhancing posture, alleviating discomfort, and improving functionality. In contrast, Kinesio taping (KT) is a non-invasive and painless method that involves applying gentle traction to the skin, purportedly leading to the reduction of pain and inflammation. This study aims to compare the effectiveness of BRE versus KT on CVA due to FHP. This research will offer important information on the effectiveness of BRE and KT, guiding healthcare providers and patients in selecting the best treatment for FHP-related NNP. The results will support the creation of evidence-backed protocols for addressing FHP-related NNP, ultimately leading to better treatment results and improved quality of life for those affected

Вмешательства

  • Другое kinesiotaping
    Before applying the tape, the treated area was cleaned and shaved. A Y strip of the tape was used to facilitate muscle contraction of the semispinalis capitis with 15 -25% tension in elongated muscle position and three I strip are used in it to release tight upper trapezius, facilitate middle trapezius and to correct posture. 3 days a week for 4 weeks
  • Другое Brugger relief exercise
    This protocol includes that the patient is positioned on edge of a chair with his hips abducted, feet externally rotated, his head up, his forearms supinated, and wrists and fingers extended. the participants were instructed to perform scapular retraction with chin tucked in, shoulder external rotation, elbow extension, shoulder abduction, and extension. While actively moving their arms and spreading their fingers externally, patient exhaled through lips 12 reps 4 set for 3 days a week Intervent
