Abstract
Background and Purpose: The purpose of this study was to compare the effect of 4 weeks corrective and elastic band exercises on frequency, intensity, duration and quality of cervicogenic headache. Material and methods: Twenty four female with forwarded head position (Mean ± SD; age 33.4 ± 8.9 y, weight 63.7 ± 10 kg, height 1.6± 0.1 m) were objectively selectead and randomly divided equally into 2 groups; elastic band and corrective exercises. Frequency, intensity, duration of headache, neck disability index and angle before and one week after intervention were evaluated as a dependent variable. Mixed repeated measure ANOVA, Willcoxan and U-Mann Whitney methods were used for data analysis. Results: Result of this study showed significant reduction in headache frequency, intensity, duration of headache, neck disability index and angle in both groups (P0.05). Conclusion: It can be included that corrective and elastic band exercises can reduce the symptoms of cervicogenic headache and consequently treat the cervicogenic headache. It seems that 4 weeks of corrective and elastic band exercises is not enough to show differnces between groups, so it suggestive that use this training during more than 4 weeks.
