Study Groups
Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.
PNF Stretching: Group A
Routine physical therapy treatment
PNF stretching
Neck flexion pattern The therapist slightly pulled the chin so that it was lifted and causing the neck to extend. Commands such as "pull your chin in" and "look at your left hip" were given to the patient. Resistance was given against left rotation, flexion and lateral flexion along with the traction to the patient's chin.Neck extension pattern The therapists lightly pulled the chin so that the neck was flexed; head was rotated and tilted to the left. Commands such as "lift your chin and then "lift your head to look above were given to the patient. Passive resistance was provided against right rotation, extension and lateral flexion.
Stabilization Exercises: Group B
Routine physical therapy treatment
Stabilization
Stabilization exercises are shoulder rolls, shrugging, chin tuck, scapular retraction, cervical extension. This was done for 15 repetition
