Full description

Material & Methods: This Randomized Control Trial was conducted in Bahria University College of Physical Therapy, Karachi. Ethical approval was prior taken from Institute Review Board. there were 32 participants selected randomly equally in experimental and control group. Both male and female were included with age of 25 to 55 years currently employees of Bahria University (BUMDC) having forward head posture or complaining neck pain were included. Exclusion was age less than 25 years, history of cervical trauma or surgery, any neurological conditions or cervical pathology. Experimental Group was given DCF exercises with Pressure Biofeedback Unit (PBU) and Control Group was given Conventional DCF Exercises. SPSS version 23.0 was used for analysis.
