Effectiveness of a Six-Week Multimodal Physiotherapy Program on the Interconnected Nature of Forward Head Posture, Vertigo, and Neck Pain

The forward head posture (FHP) is characterized by the head tilting forward compared to the shoulders, resulting in pressure on the neck and surrounding muscles, which may lead to chronic neck pain. The study focuses on a 47-year-old female patient with FHP experiencing symptoms such as dizziness and neck discomfort and emphasizes the importance of various treatment options. After six weeks of personalized training designed to improve posture and alignment, the patient's neck pain improved significantly. Evaluations using different assessments showed significant improvements in pain intensity, head and neck alignment, neck pain and function, severity of dizziness, and neck mobility. This case report discusses the role of physical therapy in treating muscle and balance problems to alleviate symptoms of various health conditions and shows lasting positive effects. It emphasizes the interconnection of conditions such as pain and dizziness and their impact on overall recovery and health. The physiotherapy approach aimed to improve patient outcomes and functional abilities by addressing muscular-skeletal and vestibular problems. This study highlights the complex relationship between FHP, vertigo, and neck pain.
