Inhaltsangabe:
- <p>Forward Head Posture (FHP) is a common postural abnormality characterized by anterior positioning of the head relative to the bodys vertical alignment, often associated with neck pain, muscle imbalance, reduced cervical mobility, and functional limitations. This study aims to evaluate the effectiveness of manual therapy on pain reduction and postural modulation in individuals presenting with forward head posture. Manual therapy techniques, including soft tissue mobilization, joint mobilization, and myofascial release, are widely used in physiotherapy to restore musculoskeletal function, improve alignment, and decrease discomfort. The intervention focuses on relieving muscular tension, enhancing cervical spine mobility, and correcting postural deviations. The expected outcomes include significant reduction in pain intensity, improvement in craniovertebral angle, better postural alignment, increased range of motion, and enhanced functional performance in daily activities. The findings of this study may support the clinical use of manual therapy as an effective non-invasive treatment approach for managing pain and improving postural control in individuals with forward head posture, thereby contributing to better quality of life and long-term musculoskeletal health.</p> <p> </p>
