Summary
This study tests whether Mat-Pilates exercises can improve balance and walking ability in adolescents aged 12 to 15 with mild scoliosis (curves between 10 and 25 degrees). Forty participants will be randomly assigned to either Mat-Pilates or standard physical therapy. The goal is to see if Pilates offers extra benefits for stability and daily function.
