AB  - Objective: The present study aimed to investigate the effects of clinical Pilates on pain intensity, joint range of motion (ROM), and scapular dyskinesia in individuals with chronic neck and shoulder pain.Method: A total of 28 participants with chronic neck and shoulder pain were enrolled in the study. The intervention consisted of clinical Pilates exercises conducted twice weekly over a period of eight weeks under the supervision of a physiotherapist. Pain intensity was measured using the Visual Analog Scale (VAS). Cervical and glenohumeral joint range of motion were assessed with a standard goniometer. Scapular dyskinesia was evaluated using the Lateral Scapular Slide Test (LSST).Results: Following the intervention, a statistically significant reduction in pain intensity was observed (p

N2  - Amaç: Bu çalışma, klinik Pilatesin kronik boyun ve omuz ağrısı olan hastalarda ağrı, eklem hareket açıklığı ve skapular diskinezi üzerindeki etkisini belirlemeyi amaçlamıştır.Gereç ve Yöntem: Çalışmaya kronik boyun ve omuz ağrısı olan yirmi sekiz birey dahil edildi. Katılımcılar, 8 hafta boyunca haftada iki kez bir fizyoterapist gözetiminde klinik Pilates seanslarına katıldı. Ağrı şiddeti, Görsel Analog Skala (VAS) kullanılarak değerlendirildi. Servikal hareket açıklığı (ROM) ve glenohumeral ROM bir gonyometre kullanılarak ölçüldü. Skapular diskinezi, Lateral Skapular Kayma Testi (LSST) ile değerlendirildi.Bulgular: Klinik Pilates, ağrı şiddetini önemli ölçüde azaltmış ve tüm yönlerde servikal ROM'u artırmıştır (p
