        Cervical range of motion and cervical proprioception were evaluated with a cervical range of&#xD;
        motion (CROM) goniometer device, and muscle stiffness was evaluated with myotonometer device.&#xD;
        Pain was evaluated with visual analog scale, and Migraine disability assessment scale (MIDAS)&#xD;
        and Neck disability index.&#xD;
  &#xD;
        Posture was evaluated with Posture Screen mobile application.&#xD;
