Detailed Description
Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.
Only females having idiopathic scoliosis with cob's angle 10°-26° with age ranging between 19-30 are included and any subjects with surgical interventions are excluded.
Population will be divided in to two groups. One group will perform scroth exercises for 4 weeks and the other group will perform core straightening exercises for 4 weeks each. Once the time period is complete, the posture will be measured using pelvic and shoulder goniometers to check the level of tilt and for quality of lifestyle, we will be using quality of life (Scoliosis Research Society-22 questionnaire)

Study Groups
Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.
Core stability exercise
The core stability training consist of three phases. The first and second phases each will last for three weeks in total, and the third phase will take place in four weeks. Each training session will begin with 10 minutes of warm-up exercises and finish with 10 minutes of cool-down exercises; both warm-up and cool-down exercises includes breathing and stretching exercises. The number of repetitions will be adjusted according to the participant's exercise tolerance.
During the first week of each phase, the number of repetitions of each exercise will be 7-10, and this will progress to 10-15 based on the patient's physical tolerance.
Core stability exercise
The core stability training consist of three phases
Scroth's program
The Schroth program include exercises for rotational breathing, spinal elongation, de-flexion, stretching, de-rotation, and strengthening, and these exercises are performed to improve the curvature, muscle strength, and endurance of postural muscles. During the Schroth exercises, rice bags, foam blocks, a stool, and long sticks will be used to adjust the posture and give passive support. The intensity of the Schroth exercises will gradually increased depending on the patient's improvement in exercise performance by decreasing the amount or degree of passive support, changing the patient's position, and adjusting the sets and repetitions of exercises
