Abstract:BackgroundCervical posture affects swallowing function through contractile and non‐contractile structures. Craniocervical flexor endurance training (CCFET), which focuses on the activation of deep cervical muscles, is used to ensure cervical posture stability.ObjectiveThe aim of this study was to investigate the effect of CCFET on the suprahyoid muscles (SH), which play an important role in swallowing function.MethodsEighty healthy individuals (52 female and 28 male, mean age 21.77 ± 1.81 years) were recruited… Show more
