Detailed Description

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

The study was planned as a randomized controlled trial. The randomization process will be done as block randomization using the random interval command in Microsoft Excel. The participants to be included in the study will be selected from the clients receiving consultancy services at the Mehmet Gümüş (MG) Clinic Physiotherapy and Wellness Center. 50 individuals diagnosed with scoliosis who applied with a postural disorder complaint will be included in the study. The individuals will be randomly divided into 2 equal groups. The rehabilitation program of the 25 individuals in the first group will be planned as 3-dimensional corrective scoliosis exercises. The program of the 25 individuals in the second group will be applied as pilates scoliosis exercises. After the initial evaluations explained to the individuals included in the study are made, an exercise program of a total of 36 sessions, each lasting approximately 50 minutes, will be applied by experienced physiotherapists who have received 3-dimensional exercise method training and pilates training specific to scoliosis, 3 days a week for 12 weeks.

Schroth

3D corrective scoliosis exercises

Group Type EXPERIMENTAL

schroth exercises

Intervention Type OTHER

Exercises will be given in lying, sitting and standing positions. In each exercise, elongation of the spine will be ensured and the person will be positioned according to the type of scoliosis. Exercises will be given progressively in supine, prone, side sitting, sitting and standing positions. In each exercise, elongation of the spine will be ensured and the person will be positioned according to the upper and lower extremities. Progress in the exercises will be made positionally by increasing the number of repetitions and the number of rotational breathing during the exercise.

Pilates

Group Type EXPERIMENTAL

Intervention Type OTHER

The average application time of the exercises is 30-40 minutes (with the first 10 minutes of warming up and the last 5 minutes of stretching). The first four exercises were used for the warm-up period and the last four exercises were used for the stretching period. The exercises will be done as 1 set of 8 repetitions. The Hundred exercise will be increased to 10 sets of 10 reps every two weeks to 10 reps, 12 reps, and 14 reps, respectively.
