Altered body balance and plantar pressure distribution in young adults with forward head posture

Forward head posture (FHP), a common postural issue, affects balance and may be linked to altered muscle activity and cervical spine alignment. This study investigated the impact of FHP on static balance and plantar pressure distribution in adults. We hypothesized that FHP would be associated with poorer balance and altered pressure distribution. This case-control study investigated the impact of FHP on static balance and plantar pressure distribution in adults (n = 52). Participants were categorized based on craniovertebral angle (CVA), into FHP (CVA
