Objectives: The present work aimed to study the relationship of some head and neck anthropometric characteristics withthe data obtained from balance analysis.Methods: Thirty healthy male volunteers participated in the study. The measurements obtained at the same time of day(10:00–12:00). Craniocorpography section of the CMS20P-2 (Zebris© Medical GmbH, Isny im Allgäu, Germany) was used formeasurements. The head length, head circumference, head width, neck circumference and neck width and length anterior-posteriordiameter were measured. As the balance values, the longitudinal deviation, lateral sway width, angular deviation, self-spin,longitudinal sway, lateral sway, angle of torticollis were evaluated. The relationships between data were compared statistically.Results: The head length showed moderate correlation with lateral sway width (r=-0.29), self-spin (r=-0.35) and lateral sway(r=0.28). A moderate positive relationship was found between the head length and longitudinal deviation. The correlation wasalso moderate between neck circumference, neck width and longitudinal sway. Neck circumference and neck width valuesshowed a moderate correlation with longitudinal sway (r=0.46 and r=0.36).Conclusion: The results of this showed that there is a moderate correlation between the balance and the head-neck characteristics.
