Summary

This study aims to compare the effects of suspension exercise therapy combined with conventional exercise therapy and conventional exercise therapy alone on pain, Cobb angle, functional impairment, and quality of life in adult patients with idiopathic scoliosis.

Conditions

  • Idiopathic Scoliosis
  • Adult

Interventions

OTHER

Conventional exercise therapy

Conventional exercise therapy includes four exercises: the "little swallow flying" exercise, the hip bridge exercise, back muscle stretching, and relaxation. It is performed once a day, 45 minutes .

OTHER

Suspension training and conventional exercise therapy

Suspension training alternates with conventional exercise therapy. It is conducted every other day, 45 minutes each time, 2-3 times a week for four consecutive weeks. Elastic ropes for suspension training are chosen based on patients' body mass: single - strand for those with body mass ≤ 30 kg and double - strand for those with body mass \> 30 kg. Suspension slings are placed on the head, lower back, and pelvis, and non-elastic rope slings on the ankles. Lower the lifting bed so that the vertical distance from the ankles to the bed surface is about 25-30 cm.
