Experimental: Scapular stabilization exercises
Scapular stabilization exercises
|
Other: Scapular stabilization exercises
In Scapular stabilization exercise, following treatment protocol will involve.
These above exercises will perform 3 times a week for eight weeks. |
Active Comparator: Scapular functional exercises
Scapular functional exercises
|
Other: Scapular functional exercises
In Scapular functional exercises, following treatment protocol will involve
These all above exercises will perform by holding dumbbells in hands (20RM at first week, 10RM at last week) with 3 sets, 3 times a week for eight weeks. |
- VAS [ Time Frame: 8th Week ]This VAS will be used in this study to measure Pain. Patients will be instructed to assess the severity of neck pain experienced last week on a 0-10 cm horizontal line (0 = painless and 10 = worst pain imaginable).
- NDI [ Time Frame: 8th Week ]NDI will be used to measure function of neck. Neck disability index is the first tool to measure the self-reported disability in patients with neck pain. Total score of NDI is 50 and ranges are defined on the level of disability.
- Inclinometer [ Time Frame: 8th Week ]Cervical spine range of motion will be assessed by inclinometer. It consists of a circular, fluid-filled disk with a bubble that indicates the number of degrees on the scale of protractor. Bubble inclinometer showed good intrarater and interrater reliability with intraclass Correlation Coefficient
