About this trial

This is an interventional treatment trial for Scapular Dyskinesis focused on measuring Scapular diskinesia, Non spacific chronic neck pain, Suspension system

Eligibility Criteria

18 Years - 35 Years (Adult)All SexesDoes not accept healthy volunteers

Inclusion Criteria: Patients age between 20-35 years. Patients with non spacific pain(pain > 3 month). pain must have been present for at least the previous 12 weeks. Patients with non spacific chronic neck pain with scapular dyskinesia. Patient BMI<30. Exclusion Criteria: History of previous neck surgery. Recent or old fractures. Cognitive impairment and inability to understand the scale. Systematic inflammatory disease e.g., rheumatoid arthritis and ankylosing Spondylitis. Neck pain with radiculopathy or neuropathy. Scapular dyskinesia due to other pathology such as shoulder impingement

Outcomes

Primary Outcome Measures

Pain intensity
Pain intensity is measured by neumeric pain rating scale the lowest value is 0 means no pain and the highest value is 10 means the worst pain
Function
Function is measured by neck disability index the total score is 50 as the score is higher the disability is higher
Scapular muscle strength
Scapular muscle strength is measured by hand held dynanometer
Scapular position
Scapular position is measured by lateral scapular slide test
