ABSTRACT
Objective: This study was conducted to investigate the effect of mulligan
SNAGS on thoracic cobb angle in subjects with thoracic kyphosis.
Methods: A total of 40 subjects participated in this study aged from 18
to 28 year underwent 12sessions of a combination of Mulligan
techniques and traditional treatment (experimental group, n 20) or
traditional treatment only (control group, n 20). They were evaluated
before the treatment, and after 4 weeks, using digital x-ray. Results:
Mixed MANOVA revealed significant decrease of thoracic cobb angle
post treatment compared to pre treatmentfor both expermintal and control
group also it revealed significant decrease of thoracic cobb angle post
treatment in experimental group compared to control group.
Conclusion:Thoracic MWM improves thoracic kyphosis (decrease
kyphotic cobbs angle)
