The Effect of Asymmetric Spinal Stabilization Exercise on Scoliosis
The Effect of Asymmetric Spinal Stabilization Exercise on Scoliosis
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effect of asymmetric spinal stabilization
 exercise on scoliosis
-  Design: Prospective study

 -  Setting: hospital rehabilitation department

 -  Intervention: Participants are educated asymmetric spinal stabilization exercise along
 scoliosis curve patterns, including the location of apex and the direction of convexity.
 After performing asymmetric spinal stabilization exercise, participants are compared the
 main outcome measures.

 -  Main outcome measures: Cobb angle, Apical vertebral rotation in Adam's test, surface
 EMG, Scoliosis Research Society-22(SRS-22) quastionnaire
Inclusion Criteria:

 -  who have idiopathic scoliosis, showing at Cobb's angle over 10 degrees on X-ray

 Exclusion Criteria:

 -  Patients who underwent spinal surgery

 -  Patients with spinal scoliosis due to cerebral palsy, muscle paralysis, polio,
 congenital spinal abnormalities

 -  Patients observed with Cobb's angle less than 10 degrees, over 40 degrees

 -  Patients complaining of acute low back pain
