Effect of Release of Upper Track of Deep Front Facial Line Versus Myofascial Release With IASTM on Patients With Upper Cross Syndrome

The MFR techniques were applied to the designated regions, with soft, steady pressure lasting 90 to 120 seconds postural correction exercises The upper track of deep front facial line release procedures were applied. Hyoid mobilization; Larynx mobilization; Sternal oscillations; and Barral's Transversus Thoracis mobilization. The thoracic inlet releasing ; intrathoracic fascia elongation; scalene releasing and diaphragm relaxation

The instrument is designed to mobilize soft tissues. Facilitation approaches were employed to break apart adhesions. Emollient Gel/Lubrication Gel (Hawk Grips product) was also used to lubricate the skin and allow the instrument to move more easily. The tool has two sides: one for therapy and the other for holding plus postural correction exercises

The exercise program included cervical stabilization exercises performed in 3 sets of 10 repetitions with a 10-second maintenance, scapular stabilization exercises plus stretching of cervical muscles.
