Summary
This study tests whether correcting forward head posture can reduce neck pain and improve brain activity in young adults. Participants will use a special pillow (Denneroll) or a towel roll at home for 6 weeks. Researchers will measure pain, brain oxygen levels, and balance during thinking tasks to see if posture correction helps.

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.
Active substance
Denneroll cervical traction device
What this could lead to
If it works, this could point toward a simple home-based method to reduce neck pain and improve brain function in people with forward head posture.
What could go wrong
This is a small early-stage trial with only 45 participants, so results may not apply to everyone. The sham group uses a towel roll, which may also provide some benefit, making it harder to see a clear difference.
