Summary

Juvenile Idiopathic Arthritis (JIA) is one of the common chronic diseases in childhood. Problems such as weakness or pain may occur in JIA, especially in the joints and the muscles around the trunk. These conditions may lead to abnormal displacement of the center of gravity, deterioration of biomechanics, and muscle imbalance in children with JIA. All these situations can lead to postural imbalance and asymmetrical loading pattern, which we often encounter in children with JIA. Current studies describing various exercise methods effective on postural alignment. However, no study was found in the literature that searching the effects of these exercise methods on gait parameters in children JIA.

Conditions

  • Juvenile Idiopathic Arthritis
  • Gait, Frontal

Interventions

OTHER

Conventional neuromuscular exercises

Conventional neuromuscular exercises represent a contemporary physiotherapeutic approach. These exercises aim to improve neuromuscular control, strength, and endurance in various muscles surrounding the included joint, contributing to the correction and maintenance of proper posture.

OTHER

Core based exercises

Core based exercises increase overall mobility, relieve pain, improve posture, and support spinal alignment. Especially important for children who are still growing is to slow or stop the progression of deformities because of the asymmetrical loading pattern.
