Resistant Vibration Stimulus and Backward Walking for Improving Craniovertebral Angle in a Patient with Forward Head Posture : A Case Report

Abstract BACKGROUND:
Dysfunctional postures are commonly seen in the current generation especially aged 10-30 mainly due to over usage of smartphones and computers in a faulty posture. Forward Head posture is a routinely seen type of head posture which is characterized by reduction in the CV angle ( Craniovertebral Angle) and a tilting of the head forward beyond its usual alignment. Resistant vibration stimulus creates vibration that enhances proprioceptive feedback and strengthens large muscle groups. Backward walking exercises have an impact on posture, specifically from the waist to the cervical spine and enhance muscle activation as well as strength in various leg muscles, thereby influencing the deep core muscles.

OBJECTIVE
To evaluate the effectiveness of Resistant Vibration Stimulus and Backward Walking on Craniovertebral angle in a patient with Forward Head Posture.

METHODOLOGY
A 23 year old male with forward head posture was assessed for CV angle by Head Posture Spinal Curvature instrument. Resistant vibration stimulus exercises with a Flex bar and Backward walking Exercise on a treadmill was given for 4 sessions per week for 25 mins for 5 weeks. Following the interventions after 5 weeks, the effect of the intervention was assessed and values studied.

RESULT
There was an increase of CV angle by 5 degrees after the treatment compared to its pre test value. Both Resistant Vibration Stimulus and Backward Walking showed improvement in the CV angle after 5 weeks.

CONCLUSION
Resistant Vibration Stimulus and Backward Walking was found to be effective in improving Craniovertebral Angle in a patient with forward head posture.
