Implication

Randomized trial demonstrates improved craniovertebral angle in breastfeeding women with forward head posture, suggesting effective intervention with Pilates and positioning adjustment.

Key Points

To assess the impact of Pilates exercises combined with breastfeeding positioning adjustments on craniovertebral angle and other health parameters in women with forward head posture.
Randomized trial with 74 breastfeeding women assigned to two groups (intervention and control).
Control group received breastfeeding positioning adjustment; intervention group received both adjustment and Pilates exercises.
Primary outcomes included craniovertebral angle and cervical range of motion assessed at baseline and after 8 weeks.
Significant improvements in all outcomes from pre- to post-intervention (p < 0.001).
Greater improvements found in the intervention group compared to the control group (p < 0.001).
Large effect sizes were calculated with partial eta-squared values between 0.621 and 0.990.
