简要总结
This study was aimed to compare the effect of Schroth therapy method, which is a 3-dimensional scoliosis exercise method, and traditional exercises on pain, body awareness and quality of life in young individuals with idiopathic scoliosis.
详细描述
38 individuals aged between 10-18 with the diagnosis of idiopathic scoliosis will be participated in the study. Individuals (study group) underwent 1 hour exercise program 3 times a week for 6 weeks, and the individuals (control group) undervent a traditional exercise program once a week under supervision of physiotherapist for 6 weeks. During the rest of the week, same exercise program was given as a home program for at least half an hour a day and individuals will followed up. Individuals' subjective pain intensity will be assessed with Visual Analogue Scale (VAS), pressure pain threshold by algometer, body awareness by Turkish version of Body Awareness Questionnaire and quality of life by Turkish version of Scoliosis Research Society (SRS)-22 scale. Measurements will be performed before and after the 6-week exercise program.
