Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

There has been much effort in recent years to better understand the causes of idiopathic scoliosis (IS). Some studies suggested muscle imbalance as a cause of scoliosis based on asymmetric muscular activation. Surface electromyography can evaluate asymmetrical muscular weakness. Therefore, the peak amplitude values can be used to compare the side to side differences in paraspinal muscles. From these findings the investigators improve the exercise method of IS according to muscle weakness and curve pattern.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

Design: Prospective study Setting: hospital rehabilitation department the investigators will check the muscular activation at bilateral paraspinal muscles with surface electromyography and curve type with simple radiography.

Intervention: After that the investigators educate asymmetrical stabilization exercise according to muscle weakness and curve pattern.

Main outcome measures: Cobb angle
