N2  - Background: Forward head posture is one of the most causal factors affecting scapular kinematics and kinetics. Scapular stability depends on the surrounding musculature. Purpose: The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of scapular stabilization exercises on Forward head posture. Subjects, Materials and Methods: Forty participants aged from 20-40 years with mean 28.72±1.70 years, both genders were included randomly assigned into two groups: Study group (A) received SSE with postural correctional exercises while control group (B) received PCE only three sessions per week for ten weeks.Cranio-vertebral angle (CVA), Neck flexion endurance (NFET), Neck extension endurance (NEET), muscle amplitude (RMS) of upper trapezius and serratus anterior both sides and cervical ROM in all directions were measured pre-treatment and post treatment. Results: MANOVA showed that there were significant changes within-group of CVA, NFE, NEE, RMS and CROM pre-post treatment at groups A, and B as (p=0.000). In-between-group analysis showed no significant change in pre values of all variables as (P=0.716, 0.244, 0.190, 0.617, 0.099, 0.195, 0.591, 0.440, 0.726, 0.304, 0.93, 0.845, 0.701) respectively while post-treatment there was a significant change in post values of all variables as (p=0.000) except  post-treatment  muscle activity for upper trapezius and serratus anterior muscles on both sides as (P= 0.296, 0.0152, 0.078, 0.176)
