Method: Students between the ages 11 to 15 years were screened for lower crossed syndrome and 41 students were having lower crossed syndrome and are selected for the study. The treatment program was conducted for 2 weeks, scheduled 5 sessions per week. The outcome measures were manual muscle testing of the abdominal muscles and gluteal muscles and Thomas test which were recorded before and after treatment sessions. Results: There was increase in strengths of abdominal muscles and gluteal muscles after 4 weeks treatment (p value < 0.0001) which was statistically significant and there was reduction in tightness of hip flexor muscles (p value < 0.0001) which was statistically significant.
