NCT ID NCT07285551
First seen Jun 25, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This study tested whether adding whole-body vibration to a specific type of physiotherapy (Rigo Concept) improves spine curves, trunk rotation, and symmetry in girls with adolescent idiopathic scoliosis. Fifty girls took part in a 5-day program with daily 3-hour sessions. Some also stood on a vibrating platform during exercises. The goal was to see if the vibration boost leads to better posture and spinal alignment.

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.
Active substance
Rigo Concept physiotherapy and whole-body vibration
What this could lead to
If it works, this could point toward a non-surgical way to improve spinal curves and posture in teens with scoliosis.
What could go wrong
This is a small, completed study with only 50 participants, so results may not apply to everyone. The treatment is short-term (5 days) and may not produce lasting changes.
