Effect Of Kinetic Control Training On Pain And Craniovertebral Angle In Symptomatic Forward Head Posture
Sponsor: Cairo University
Summary
The goal of this clinical trial is to investigate the effect of adding kinetic control training of cervical and shoulder joints on pain, neck function, neuromuscular control of the deep cervical flexors, and craniovertebral angle in symptomatic forward head posture.

kinitic control training
kinetic control training, Correction of Low cervical flexion UCM Initially, position the lower and upper cervical spine in neutral with the head supported. the person is trained to perform independent upper cervical flexion (nodding). The upper cervical spine can flex only so far as there is no low cervical flexion. As the ability to control upper cervical extension gets easier and the pattern of dissociation feels less unnatural the exercise can be progressed. Correction of scapula and glenohumeral ( UCM) the arm flexion is performed unsupported through the partial range that can be controlled well. This is eventually progressed throughout the full benchmark range with the elbow straight. With visual, auditory and kinaesthetic cues the person becomes familiar with the task of flexing the glenohumeral joint to 90° without scapula movement or glenohumeral translation.
