Summary

This study looked at whether individual or group physiotherapy could improve trunk rotation in girls aged 8-11 with mild posture problems. Sixty-five girls were assigned to individual therapy, group exercises, or observation only for six months. The goal was to see if these programs could reduce the angle of trunk rotation and help prevent scoliosis.
