Interventions

Type	Name	Description
OTHER	Group 1	Physical therapy agents and isometric exercise training will be applied to the patients. These will be administered a combination of transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation, ultrasound, a hot pack, and isometric training 3 times a week for 4 weeks by the physical therapist.
OTHER	Group 2	Physical therapy agents and deep cervical flexor muscle training will be applied to the patients. These will be administered a combination of transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation, ultrasound, a hot pack, and muscle training 3 times a week for 4 weeks by the physical therapist. Training of the craniocervical flexor muscles is going to be focused on the deep flexor muscles such as longus capitis and longus colli muscles, making neck flexion, not the head.
OTHER	Group 3	Physical therapy agents and core stabilization training will be applied to the patients. These will be administered a combination of transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation, ultrasound, a hot pack, and stabilization training 3 times a week for 4 weeks by the physical therapist.
