Effect of integrated neuromuscular inhibition technique on subjects with neck pain and forward head posture: a randomized controlled trial.

Objective: Forward head posture (FHP) and neck pain are common musculoskeletal complaints. This study aimed to evaluate the effect of the Integrated Neuromuscular Inhibition Technique (INIT) on the range of motion (ROM) and craniovertebral angle (CVA) in individuals with FHP and neck pain.

Methods: A total of 40 physical therapy participants (26 females and 14 males), aged 18 to 23 years (mean age: 20 ± 1.

Aerobic exercise training in modulation of aerobic physical fitness and balance of burned patients.

[Purpose] This study aimed to determine the impact of aerobic exercise on aerobic capacity, balance, and treadmill time in patients with thermal burn injury. [Subjects and Methods] Burned adult patients, aged 20-40 years (n=30), from both sexes, with second degree thermal burn injuries covering 20-40% of the total body surface area (TBSA), were enrolled in this trial for 3 months. Patients were randomly divided into; group A (n=15), which performed an aerobic exercise program 3 days/week for 60 min and participated in a traditional physical therapy program, and group B (n=15), which only participated in a traditional exercise program 3 days/week.
