NCT ID NCT07194564
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study tests whether a single session of a self-corrective exercise can immediately improve muscle activity and spinal alignment in 40 adolescents with idiopathic scoliosis. Participants do both a standard exercise and the self-corrective exercise, and researchers measure changes using muscle sensors and spine photos. The goal is to see if this type of exercise could be useful for rehabilitation.
