Core Stabilization Exercise Versus Scientific Exercises Approach to Scoliosis in the Treatment of Adolescent Idiopathic Scoliosis: A Randomized Single Blind Trial
In Brief
A clinical study evaluating SEAS exercise and CS exercise for Scoliosis and Adolescent Idiopathic Scoliosis. Completed, enrolled 30 participants.
Detailed Summary
Scoliosis specific exercises have been shown to improve curve progression but there have been few studies that compare the different exercise approaches in adolescent idiopathic scoliosis (AIS). The objective of this study was to compare the effects of Core stabilization (CS) exercises with Scientific Exercises Approach to Scoliosis (SEAS exercises) in addition to brace wearing in patients with AIS. It is important to compare different exercise methods on different aspects of scoliotic deformity, such as curve progression, angle of trunk rotation, body symmetry, cosmetic trunk deformity, satisfaction with treatment and quality of life.
Study Details
Timeline
Interventions
Patient were referred by medical doctor with a prescription of brace and exercise training for their moderate scoliotic curves. Patients were randomly divided into two groups. The SEAS group received SEAS exercises one times in a week for four months. In addition patients in SEAS groups were wearing spinal brace for their scoliosis in this period
