Abstract

Objective: The purpose was to measure changes in neck pain, NDI, and deep neck muscle thickness during neck stabilization exercises in a sitting position, and to confirm the effects of postural changes.
 Method: Participants were divided into a lying posture exercise group (10 participants) and a sitting posture exercise group (10 participants) to perform neck stabilization exercises. Both groups will receive treatment for 20 minutes three times a week for four weeks, and participants will complete a pretest and reassess previously assessed items after a total of four weeks of intervention.
 Results: Within both groups, the change in deep neck muscle thickness increased significantly in the before-after comparison, but there was no significant difference in the between-group comparison. Within both groups, neck pain was significantly reduced when comparing before and after, but there was no significant difference when comparing between both groups. Within both groups, the NDI was significantly reduced when comparing before and after, and there was also a significant difference when comparing between both groups.
 Conclusion: Neck stabilization exercises in a sitting position are an effective movement mediation method.
