Summary

The aim of this clinical study is to investigate the effect of virtual reality based rehabilitation program on kinesiophobia, respiratory muscle strength, spinal mobility, physical activity, spinopelvic parameters and quality of life after posterior fusion surgery in individuals diagnosed with Adolescent Idiopathic Scoliosis (AIS). The main questions it aims to answer are:

* Does a virtual reality based rehabilitation program after posterior fusion surgery have an effect on kinesiophobia, respiratory muscle strength, spinal mobility, physical activity, spinopelvic parameters and quality of life in individuals diagnosed with AIS?
* Is the virtual reality-based rehabilitation program after posterior fusion surgery more effective for individuals diagnosed with AIS than the routine physiotherapy and rehabilitation program applied in the clinic?

They will compare it with the \[routine physiotherapy and rehabilitation program\] to see if the virtual reality-based rehabilitation program is effective in individuals with AIS after posterior fusion.

Participants :

After being evaluated in terms of kinesiophobia, respiratory muscle strength, spinal mobility, physical activity, spinopelvic parameters and quality of life, the Virtual Reality-Based Exercise Group will be given an exercise program via the games in Kinect Sports Ultimate for 30 minutes a day for a total of 6 weeks, 2 days . At the end of the 6 week, the participants will be re-evaluated and the results will be compared according to the control group.
