Cervical Extension Syndrome (CES) is a form of postural dysfunction under the Movement System Impairment (MSI) classification. It has more prevalence among adults due to prolonged poor posture and sedentary lifestyles. This condition involves a forward head position,, increased thoracic curve, and altered movement patterns. This resulting in neck pain and impaired function. The Sahrmann's approach is a biomechanical principle that puts emphasizes on muscle activation, correction of postural impairments, and restoration of movement control through targeted exercises. The objective of the study will be to compare the effects of Sahrmann's Approach on Pain, ROM, craniovertebral angle and function in patients with Cervical Extension Syndrome.
