Summary

Scoliosis is a three-dimensional deformity of the spine of unknown etiology and is clinically defined as 10° or more lateral curvature of the spine. Although there are different types of scoliosis, the most common type is adolescent idiopathic scoliosis (AIS), which starts at the age of 10. AIS can affect body alignment, spine and soft tissues and cause physical problems such as postural disorder, cosmetic trunk deformity, decreased flexibility of the spinal column, changes in spinal muscle characteristics, and back pain. The aim of our study is to examine the effects of physical activity counseling on physical activity level and posture, perception of deformity and quality of life in patients with AIS.
