Brief Summary

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

Abnormal spinal curvature can occur as a result of neurologic, orthopedic or idiopathic factors. The role of physiotherapy is not only to prevent intrinsic changes that may occur in the spine but also be used to correct postural abnormalities. this study will investigate the impact of Schroth Exercise compared to Functional Electrical Stimulation in Adolescent With Spinal Deformities (scoliosis and or kyphosis).

Study Groups

Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.

Schroth Exercise

The Schroth Method is a nonsurgical option for scoliosis treatment. It uses exercises customized for each patient to return the curved spine to a more natural position. The goal of Schroth exercises is to de-rotate, elongate and stabilize the spine in a three-dimensional plane. it will be applied 3 session per week for 3 months.

Group Type EXPERIMENTAL

Schroth Exercise

Intervention Type OTHER

two month (three session per week)

Functional Electrical Stimulation

30 minutes of Functional Electrical Stimulation (FES) three times a week for 3 months. Two electrodes were attached on the lateral parts of the convex side of the body, and two others on the erector spinae muscles. FES (CU-FS1; Novastim, Korea) was set at a frequency of 35 Hz, with a 250-μs pulse width. Electrical stimulation lasted for 6 seconds, followed by a 6-second rest.
