cervical stablization exercise starting with cervical isometric exercises performed in the supine position. The head will be supported on a pillow with a towel roll placed under the cervical spine to ensure proper alignment. Additional cervical isometric exercises will be conducted in the seated position by applying manual resistance at the forehead to perform cervical flexion, extension, rotation, and side-bending movements. The Integrated Neuromuscular Inhibition will be applied to the upper trapezius muscle to deactivate myofascial trigger points and reduce muscle tension. The technique will consist of three sequential components: intermittent ischemic compression, strain counterstain, and muscle energy technique

Participants in this group will receive conventional physical therapy only in the form of superficial heat using hot pack for 10 minutes, stretching exercise, isometric neck exercise and posture advice for 3 sessions/week over 4 weeks' periods.
