Summary

This study looks at whether mat Pilates, combined with routine physical therapy, can reduce pain and improve posture in school-aged children (8–16 years) with Upper Crossed Syndrome—a condition marked by forward head, rounded shoulders, and a curved upper back. Half of the 28 participants will do Pilates plus standard exercises, while the other half will do only standard exercises. Researchers will measure changes in neck and back angles and pain levels using simple tools like video analysis and a pain scale.
