“…Important discrepancies were observed at the beginning and end of care for the clinically relevant hump and plumb line distances in the SEAS community. They found after analysis that SEAS exercise had strong results in the scoliosis reduction (Elanchezhian and Swarnakumari, 2019c) Hence this proves that SEAS exercise can be implemented on children with scoliosis especially with CP.…”

SEAS exercise to improve functional activities among the children with spastic hemiplegic cerebral palsy children. Single group pre- post experimental research design. Cerebral paralysis is a static encephalopathy which affects the immature brain and leads to permanent motor disability. Due to a combination of spasticity, muscle weakness and incompletion of muscle control, the spinal deformity occurs in rising patients with CP; it can lead to poor balance in the trunk and significantly limits patient function. SEAS exercise capacity to enhance the self-corrected posture by concentrating during everyday activities. Eighty eight subjects of spastic hemiplegic cerebral palsied children, aged 6-12, male and female with scoliosis were selected under purposive sampling technique and received SEAS exercise training for a period of eight weeks. pre and post outcome measures were assessed using Modified Ashworth scale and Scoliometer to measure the functional activity in the children Pediatric balance scale, functional gait assessment and Gross motor function were used. Significant changes in spasticity and scoliosis were observed, and functional parameters were increased. The results of the post-test mean values for all SEAS variables demonstrated substantial improved balance, reduced scoliosis and gross motor functions in those receiving SEAS protocol (p<0.05). The SEAS exercise proves there was a decrease in scoliosis and their by improvement in functional abilities among children with spastic hemiplegic cerebral palsy after eight weeks of intervention.

“…Especially when users maintain a stretched neck while looking at their phones. Overuse of a smartphone can cause cervical angle changes, most commonly when users do not maintain proper posture and place additional strain on it [1 may adopt a forward head position as a result of these dramatic changes in the cervical, which can cause muscle discomfort and reduced neck mobility (FHP) [2]. Users with neutral standing have a higher forward head position when seeing the mobile phone screen, according to a 2015 study by Guan x [3].…”

“…Users with neutral standing have a higher forward head position when seeing the mobile phone screen, according to a 2015 study by Guan x [3]. The user's poor posture may affect the muscular balance of the cervical spine, thoracic spine, and shoulder blades [2]. Text neck is a possibility of early wear and damage to the spine, as well as spinal loss, is caused by the repeated pulling and stretching in this area, resulting in muscle strain, pinched nerves, and ruptured discs [4].…”

“…Text neck is a possibility of early wear and damage to the spine, as well as spinal loss, is caused by the repeated pulling and stretching in this area, resulting in muscle strain, pinched nerves, and ruptured discs [4]. Although the capacity of the chest wall to inflate and compress properly during expiration is limited [2]. Developing forward head position as a result of chronic leaning forward, according to Park et al and Amodei et al, can alter lung function [11,32]and hanged mechanics of the cervical and thoracic spine has been linked to forward head posture produced by neck tilting while staring at a smartphone, restricting and alter the capacity of the lung [2].…”

Background: Text neck syndrome is more likely to produce neck discomfort and soreness. The aim of this study is to see how Balloon Blowing Exercise compares to Modified Cervical Exercise and Swiss Ball Exercise in terms of lung capacity in patients with Text Neck Syndrome caused by poor posture. Methodology: A total of 30 students (N=30) were chosen and divided into two groups of 15 each (N1=15) (N2=15). They were randomly separated into two groups (Group 1 and Group 2). Group 1 consisted of fifteen (N=15) individuals who were given a balloon blowing activity. The modified cervical exercise along with Swiss ball exercise were was used on Fifteen people in Group 2 (N=15). Four weeks of intervention were given to the participants. Prior to the intervention, demographic data was obtained, students were requested to complete the NDI questionnaire, and a rural test measurement was performed. Before and after the intervention period, a spirometry test was performed to determine FEV and FVC. Result: The results showed improvement in FEV and FVC of balloon Blowing exercise group and modified cervical exercise along with Swiss ball exercise.

“…CP is an insult to the developing brain that mainly affects motor function. In 2-2.5 out of 1000 births, it is the most common cause of childhood disability (Elanchezhian and SwarnaKumari, 2019). Because cerebral paralysis has diversi ied features in muscle tone and movement disorder because of brain damage, it can be classi ied as a spastic cerebral palsy (60-70%), and ataxic type depending on the predominant abnormal movement.…”

To find out functional strength training exercise on improving gross motor function among the children with spastic hemiplegic cerebral palsy children. Single group pre-experimental research design. The most common cause of movement disability in infancy is cerebral palsy. Cerebral palsy patients have impairments such as spasticity, low muscle strength and selective motor control in their body function. Such deficiencies may limit activity performance and participation in everyday life. Improving and optimising activities and involvement are crucial treatment objectives. Functional strength workouts are vital to overcoming obstacles to improving the functionality of children with neurological issues. 92 subjects of spastic hemiplegic cerebral palsied aged 4-8, male and female with spastic hemiplegic cerebral palsy were selected under purposive sampling technique and received functional strength training exercise for a period of ten weeks. To assess the gross motor function (functional independence) pre and post the exercise program, Gross motor functional measure was used. Results: The pre and post measurements shows significant changes in the gross motor function among children with spastic hemiplegic cerebral palsy. The results of the post-test mean values show improvement in gross motor functions after functional strength training program (p<0.05). The functional strength training program proves that increased gross motor function and thereby improvement in functional abilities among children with spastic hemiplegic cerebral palsy after ten weeks of intervention.
