Abstract Forward head posture is a common type of postural deformity seen in patients with neck disorders that are associated with several musculoskeletal system problems such as chronic neck pain, damage of bones, joints and ligaments of the cervical region. Of this study was to investigate the relationship between postural changes and dynamic balance in forward head posture students. Forty students (23 males, 17 females) were included in this study. All students had anterior head displacement range from 35 to 74 millimeter. Their age ranged from 18 to 21 years, body mass index from 17.3 to 30.64 kg / m² and height from 159 to 179 cm. Rotation around x,y,z-axes ,and translation around x,y,z-axes were measured by Postureprint software for the head, rib cage, and pelvis regions and mediolateral stability, anteroposterior stability and overall stability were measured by Biodex balance system at 2 levels 4 and 8. There was no significant relationship between postural changes of the head, rib cage ,pelvis regions and dynamic balance in forward head posture students.
