In this 21st century, we are really adapted in sedentary life style. We always try to find easy access to do the daily life activities and this thing made us lazy and more prone to different kind of musculoskeletal problems. The examined students were from different fields like physiotherapy and non-physiotherapy fields. It was hypothesized that physiotherapy group must be fit and healthy more than non-physiotherapy group because they are aware of pros and cons of spinal protection rule. Different kind of tests were performed on students of physiotherapy and non-physiotherapy groups like Schober I-II tests were conducted to find out the spinal mobility and a lot of other tests like Delmas Index, occiput to wall test, fingertip to floor test, lateral flexion test Lennie test, sphinx test, cobra test, Ganselen and Nachlas tests were also performed on each student to know if they have any postural problem and pain. The final result of our study was so interesting because when we did the comparison between physiotherapist group and non-physiotherapist group, it came to know that students in non-physiotherapist group were more fit, healthy and flexible than students of physiotherapist group.
