چکیده
Material and methods Forty girls with AIS (range of Cobb angle 15-35 degree) were examined. The group was divided into two randomized subgroups “D”(N=18) and “DK” (N=22). DoboMed was applied in group “D” (only). DoboMed and manual therapy was applied in the group “DK”. Derotational stretch mobilization techniques in selected segments of thoracic spine were used as preparation for DoboMed’s exercises. Physiotherapy has been continued for 3 weeks. The spirometry, maximal inspiration and expiratory pressures (MIP, MEP), kyphosis and the angle of trunk rotation (ATR-Bunnell) in thoracic spine have been estimated before and after therapy.

Effect of a Long-Term Corrective Exercises With Using Brace on Cobb Angle and Postural Control of a Girl With Adolescence Idiopathic Scoliosis
Purpose: Scoliosis is a three-dimensional deformity of the spine in which the resulting imbalance accompanied by the changes in muscle and nervous components can harm the postural control. Various treatments have been suggested so far to correct scoliosis, in which using corrective exercises along with brace are essential to limit the growing curvature, improve spine stability and postural cont...

Results The values of MIP and MEP (p < 0.01) were significantly increased in both groups (before and after therapy). The group "DK", compared to the group "D", showed significant improvement in forced expiratory volume in one second FEV1(p < 0.05), an increase in kyphosis (p < 0.01) and a decrease in ATR (p < 0.05). Conclusion The use of joint physiotherapeutic methods in the treatment of AIS a...
