This randomized controlled study will examine the patient of forward head posture who suffering with upper cross syndrome. There will be comparison of two treatment methods 1st one is elongation longitudinaux articular vertebral and columnar decoaption osteo-articulaire also known as ELDOA and 2nd is upper thoracic mobilization .
This study includes 42 participants, both male and female, age between 20 to 45. ELDOA target the cervical and upper thoracic spine to improve range of motion, restore normal cervical and thoracic spine alignment and reduce muscle tension. Upper thoracic mobilization improve thoracic spine mobility and enhance cervical spine alignment.

| Elongation longitudinaux articular vertebral and columnar decoaption osteo-articulaire also known as ELDOA | Diagnostic Test | ELDOA targtes cervical and upper thoracic spine. ELDOA exercises involves spicific postural holds that improve forward neck posture.The goal of ELDOA is to help reduce stress and increase space in the vertebral joints so that muscles can move freely. The benefits of these stretches include joint mobility, increased fluid absorption in the discs of the spine, flexibility, improved muscle tone, postural alignment, body-mind connection, and coordination. The tension and release created by these stretches helps normalize the posture. |
| Measure | Description | Time Frame |
|---|---|---|
| Tragus to wall test | Tragus to wall test for forward head posture assessment: normal below 10 centimetres , 10.1- 12 centimetres for mild positive forward head posture,12.1-15 centimetres moderate forward head posture, less than 15 centimetres severe forward head posture. | 12 Months |
| Craniovertebral angle assess | Craniovertebral angle assess by web plot digitizer software: normal CVA value 48-50 degree, positive forward head posture less than 48 degree | 12 Months |
