Abstract

The purpose of this study was to compare cervicocephalic kinesthesia and electromyographic (EMG) activity of neck muscles-upper trapezius (UT) and sternocleidomastoid (SCM)-between individuals with and without forward head posture (FHP) and to examine the correlation between cervicocephalic kinesthesia and craniovertebral angle (CVA).
