Active self correction during different exercises and movements: a biomechanical study

Introduction SOSORT Consensus Conference (Milan 2005) developed about the main important features of a correct treatment based on physical exercises states that the main point is self correction. The SEAS school of treatment focuses on Active Self Correction (ASC) that is the series of movements of reallignemnt as a whole that the patients autonomously performs in order to reduce the scoliotic curves. This movement has to be performed as much as possible in three dimension so the ASC movement sometimes is not easy to be understood and also not easy to be realized by the patient. Aim of this paper is to check ASC in different exercises and during gait through a not-invasive optoelectronic gait analysis system.
