  Abstract


I. INTRODUCTION : Posture is defined by the relative positioning of the body parts within a space, and it is an essential element for normal balance(1). Television, video games, motorized transportation, fast food, and lack of regular physical activity all contribute to poor physical condition, leading to anatomical and biomechanical modification in body alignment (2) .In modern society, musculoskeletal abnormality and pain are increasing due to repetitive work and bad work posture.(3) The long-term effect of prolonged sitting while watching or playing games and using phones and computers has been detected as a significant risk factor of altered posture alignment(4). Prolonged poor positioning results in a pressure build up in the surrounding structures(5)Staying in the same position for prolonged periods can result in tightening of the agonist muscles and weakening of the antagonist muscles; hence posture appears cramped(6). Consequences of these imbalances are forward head posture, thoracic kyphosis, pronated foot, excessive pelvic tilt, rounded shoulder, and abnormal scapulohumeral rhythm(5). Slouched posture is defined as a relaxed sitting posture with a flexed thoracic and lumbar spine. Such a posture is commonly encountered in our daily activities(7). Slouched sitting posture may induce inappropriate activation patterns of key muscles for scapular stabilization such as serratus anterior, mid-trapezius and low trapezius(8). Slouched posture is commonly seen in college girls, they adopt poor posture while writing and using laptops. Slouched posture is defined as a posture in which the shoulder bent forward that results from pectoral muscle tightness.(7). Tightness of pectoralis muscles leads to poor posture which identifies as forward shoulder or rounded shoulder posture with weak posterior scapular stabilizers. Stretching of tight pectoral muscles in proper manner results in correction of the faulty posture as stretching(8).RESULT : The results of this study were analyzed in terms of Questionnaire on Postural awareness and habits of young people and Back scratch test. The collected data was analyzed using SPSS software. In the study it have been concluded that Group A treated with Scapular retractor strengthening exercise along with pectoral muscle stretching shows a significant improvement in the slouched posture and reduction in pectoral muscle tightness than Group B treated with pectoral muscle stretching, which means Group A shows better results than Group B.
