Dissertation note: Thesis (Ph.D.) - Cairo University - Faculty of Physical Therapy - Department of Basic Science Summary: Background: Postural kyphosis is asymptomatic and is the most common type of idiopathic kyphosis . There is lack in literature supporting efficacy of spinal mobilization techniques in restoring normal thoracic curvature. Mulligan and maitland mobilization were used to improve rang of motion and referred pain not to restore normal kyphotic angle. The purpose: This study was conducted to investigate and compare the effect of mulligan and maitland spinal mobilization on kyphotic angle in postural kyphosis. Subjects: This study was performed on 75 students from faculty of physical therapy their age was (17-21)years. They were included in the study by initial postural examination and have been randomly assigned into three equal groups. Method: Group I Each subject in this group received mulligan mobilization in addition to postural awareness exercises as conservative treatment . 18 mulligan mobilization sessions were given to the subjects over a period of 12 weeks. 5 postural awareness exercises were performed daily under the supervision of the therapist then alone as a home program . Group II Each subject in this group received maitland mobilization in addition to postural awareness exercises as conservative treatment. Number of mobilization sessions and frequency of exercises as group I .Group III This group was a control group. Subjects within this group performed exercises only as a conservative treatment daily as the previous two groups. Kyphotic angle was measured using formetric raster-stereography pre and post treatment. Result: the result of the study showed significant effect of mulligan mobilization in decreasing kyphotic angle in patients with postural kyphosis p value was (0.001) and there was not any significant effect of maitland mobilization on kyphotic angle and p value was (0.256). Conclusion :Mulligan mobilization is effective in decreasing kyphotic angle in (asymptomatic) postural kyphosis. Maitland mobilization has no significant effect in decreasing kyphotic angle in (asymptomatic) postural kyphosis
