Brief Summary: Based on the reviewed literature Core Stabilization Exercises CSEs have been shown to have positive effects on patients with low back pain To our knowledge very few studies have examined the impact of CSEs on neck pain particularly in patients with forward head posture FHP despite that several authors suggested that FHP may be caused by lumbopelvic malalignment

Therefore the purpose of the study is to assess how CSEs may affect the cervical sagittal balance parameters CSB in patient with FHP
Detailed Description: After the patient fills the consent form the Craniovertebral angle will be measured by taking a photograph then this photograph will be analysed by the KINOVEA software

If the CVA is less than 50 degrees heshe will have a lateral x-ray on the cervical spine to measure the radiographic variables of the CSB parameters These variables will be assessed and quantified by Image J software

The patients will be classified randomly into 2 groups the intervention and control groups The intervention will receive CSEs program and Postural Correction Exercises PCEs program but control group will receive only PCEs program

Both programs will be implemented for 6 weeks 3 times week and after 6 weeks patients will be reassessed again to determine the difference
