Ultrasound, hot packs, cervical postural stretching and strengthening exercise will be done for all groups. Stretching Exercises Posture correction exercises training will include stretching of tight muscles such as Pectoralis major, levator scapulae, upper trapezius, suboccipital muscles and, sternocleidomastoid. Strengthening Exercises Exercises will include Chin Tucks exercise and Neck isometric exercises

Scapulothoracic exercises It is a strengthening exercises of the serratus anterior muscle, as well as the middle and inferior fibres of the trapezius muscle

The exercise techniques used by Kendell were as follows: 1\. Stretching of the Cervical Extensors: By sitting with the head down and putting both hands across the occipital area, the cervical extensors can be stretched by adopting a flex neck position 2- Strengthening of the Deep Cervical Flexors Positioning supine with the chin tucked in and lifting the head for 2 to 8 s 3- Strengthening the Shoulder Retraction Maintaining an upright posture, keep the resistance band circling with strong support and stretching it with the upper limbs of both sides so that there is full retraction of the scapula 4-Stretching the Pectorals muscle Assigning both hands on the occipital area and pulling the elbows back up (bilateral) and performance arm abduction and external rotation (unilateral).
