| Summary: | The study aims at assessing the extenuative anthropometric and
functional improvements of scoliosis in children as a result of a
kinetotherapeutical program with exercises adapted from judo. The study
included 18 aged 10-14 years, diagnosed with levoconvex thoraco-lumbar
scoliosis. The kinetotherapeutical program adapted from judo was applied
for 3 months. The results of the study highlight significant differences in the
anthropometric and somatic parameters contributing to improving the spine
condition. The efficiency of kinetotherapeutical programs depends on the
early start of treatment and the effectiveness of specific physical exercise
programs. |
