Comparison of The Effectiveness of Exercise Therapy and Electroacupuncture in Patients with Forward Head Abnormalities and Myofascial Pain Syndrome: A Randomized Clinical Trial. Forward Head Posture (FHP), which refers to the head being more forward than the shoulder, is one of the most common postural defects of all ages. Therefore, in this study, we aimed to compare the effectiveness of exercise therapy and electroacupuncture in patients with FHP and myofascial pain syndrome (MPS). The present study was an open-label randomized clinical trial.
