Study Groups
Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.
Intervention Group
This group will be given a home program including isometric neck strengthening exercises, neck stretching exercises and posture exercises during the 6-week treatment period, and the control group will be given an additional oculomotor exercise program.
Oculomotor Exercises
Oculomotor exercises are designed to improve eye movement control, coordination, and visual tracking.
Posture Exercises
Postural exercises help strengthen core muscles, improve alignment, and enhance stability. They are essential for maintaining proper posture, preventing pain, and reducing the risk of musculoskeletal imbalances.
Neck Stretching and Strengthing Exercises
Neck stretching and strengthening exercises help improve flexibility, reduce stiffness, and enhance muscle support for the cervical spine. They are beneficial for relieving neck pain, improving posture, and preventing injuries.
Control Group
This group will be given a home program including isometric neck strengthening exercises, neck stretching exercises and posture exercises during the 6-week treatment period.
Posture Exercises
Postural exercises help strengthen core muscles, improve alignment, and enhance stability. They are essential for maintaining proper posture, preventing pain, and reducing the risk of musculoskeletal imbalances.
Neck Stretching and Strengthing Exercises
Neck stretching and strengthening exercises help improve flexibility, reduce stiffness, and enhance muscle support for the cervical spine. They are beneficial for relieving neck pain, improving posture, and preventing injuries.
