"The group B will receive Proprioceptive Neuromuscular Facilitation technique for stretching and rhythmic stabilization technique for strengthening. Proprioceptive Neuromuscular Facilitation (PNF) is a stretching technique utilized to improve muscle elasticity and has been shown to have a positive effect on active and passive range of motions. The PNF group performed the intervention for 30 minutes a day, six times a week, a total of 24 times. (13) In this group, two types of PNF techniques were given:~1. first is strengthening technique included rhythmic stabilization that is characterized by alternating isometric contractions against resistance, no motion intended to apply for the weak muscles of upper cross syndrome included deep neck flexors specifically lower trapezius and serratus anterior.~2. Second is stretching technique included contract relax that is resisted isotonic contractions of the restricting muscles (antagonists) followed by relaxation and movement"
