Brief Summary: Background Cervical proprioception referring to the awareness of the heads position in space plays a crucial role in maintaining postural control and preventing musculoskeletal injuries While previous research has established the importance of cervical proprioception in motor function its specific impact on body awareness and pain-related aspects remains less explored particularly in healthy young individuals

Aim This prospective cross-sectional study aims to investigate the impact of cervical proprioceptive error on body awareness pressure pain threshold pressure pain tolerance conditioned pain modulation and temporal summation in healthy young individuals

Methods In asymptomatic participants cervical proprioception will be assessed using the head position error test in both right and left rotation directions with the CROM device Participants will be then divided into two groups based on the presence of proprioceptive deviation 5 Body awareness will beassessed using the Body Awareness Questionnaire while pressure pain threshold pain tolerance and temporal summation will be measured bilaterally with an algometer device 2 cm lateral to the C2 and C7 spinal processes midpoint of the upper part of the trapezius and over the temporomandibular joint in both groups Subsequently the two groups will be compared using independent samples t-tests
Detailed Description: Cervical proprioception which refers to the awareness of the heads position in space is a fundamental component of postural control and the prevention of musculoskeletal injuries This sense is mediated by sensory receptors located in the muscles joints and skin of the cervical spine providing critical feedback for maintaining balance and coordinating movements Previous studies have extensively documented the role of cervical proprioception in motor function highlighting its importance in activities that require precise head and neck movements

Despite these findings there is a gap in the literature regarding the specific impact of cervical proprioception on body awareness and pain-related parameters in healthy individuals Body awareness or the conscious perception of body position and movement is essential for efficient motor control and overall well-being Additionally understanding how proprioceptive errors in the cervical region might influence pain perception could provide insights into mechanisms underlying chronic pain conditions

The primary aim of this prospective cross-sectional study is to investigate the impact of cervical proprioceptive error on body awareness pressure pain threshold pressure pain tolerance conditioned pain modulation and temporal summation in asymptomatic young individuals
